0 Euro - Johann Strauss

The 0 Euro souvenir program, administered through a licensed network of cultural and tourist sites, has been running since 2015 and by now numbers in the hundreds of references. Oberthur Fiduciaire produces them to genuine banknote specification — security thread, watermark, the works — which is precisely the point. The legal tender denomination of zero sidesteps every EU regulation on private currency issuance while letting collectors handle something that feels, physically, like real money.

Johann Strauss II is a reliable fixture in the souvenir series, particularly through Viennese tourist outlets. The 2025 dating marks a fresh print run rather than any new authorization event.
