Comments

The 0 Euro souvenir note program, administered under license from the European Central Bank, has produced thousands of regional and thematic variants since its commercial launch around 2015. These notes carry full legal visual compliance — correct security features, genuine Oberthur Fiduciaire printing — but zero face value, making them a curious edge case: banknote-format collectibles that are technically neither currency nor counterfeits.

Karakartal is the Turkish name for the greater spotted eagle. Whether this issue ties to a specific wildlife or conservation initiative isn't documented in standard catalog sources, so that connection shouldn't be assumed.
