The EuroSouvenir program, managed by UEBP, launched in 2016 as a strictly non-circulating collector series sold through tourist sites and heritage attractions across Europe. These notes are legal-look souvenirs — they carry a zero denomination precisely to prevent any ambiguity about their status as tender, a requirement coordinated with European central banking authorities.
Oberthur Fiduciaire in Rennes prints these on genuine banknote-grade paper, which is part of the appeal. The production standards are the same as currency work, not gift-shop novelty printing.
