The zero-euro souvenir note series, commercially launched around 2015 by Richard Faille and produced by Oberthur Fiduciaire under license from the European Central Bank, occupies a curious niche: legal in design mimicry but carrying no face value and no monetary function whatsoever. Eurosouvenier is the dominant distributor of these tourist pieces across French overseas territories and metropolitan France alike.
The Barachois — the coastal lagoon at Saint-Denis sheltered by a basalt reef — is a recurring subject in Réunion promotional material. Oberthur's security printing credentials are genuine; the firm handles real currency contracts across Africa and elsewhere.
