0 Euro - GEDENKSTÄTTE CHECKPOINT CHARLIE

The 0 Euro souvenir program, launched by the European Central Bank–licensed operator Euro Souvenir in 2015, produced these collector pieces through Oberthur Fiduciaire using genuine banknote paper and a real security thread — the same production standards applied to circulating currency. Checkpoint Charlie is among the most commercially reliable subjects in the series; the Berlin tourist market sustains consistent demand, and multiple design variants have been issued across different years.

The notes carry no monetary value and are not legal tender, but they are printed to a specification that makes counterfeiting them a criminal offense under EU law regardless.
