The 0 Euro souvenir note program, administered under license from the European Central Bank, began in France around 2015 and has since expanded to hundreds of tourist-site and cultural themes across Europe. These notes are legal tender in the technical sense only — the ECB authorization covers their design compliance, not their acceptance at any till. James Joyce's inclusion places him in company ranging from Versailles to regional cheese festivals, which says something about the program's breadth if not its curatorial rigor.
Oberthur Fiduciaire prints them on genuine banknote paper with authentic security features, including a holographic strip — the same infrastructure used for circulating currency, applied to a collectible with a face value of nothing.
