EuroSouvenir notes occupy a curious niche — legal collector items deliberately denominated at zero to sidestep counterfeiting laws while mimicking every formal convention of circulating currency. This example, tied to the legend of Cyprián (the Czech folkloric figure associated with the Moravian countryside and herb lore), was issued through the network of regional tourism partners that have made the 0 Euro souvenir format increasingly common across Central Europe since the mid-2010s.
Oberthur Fiduciaire's involvement matters here — the same French security printer responsible for genuine banknotes for dozens of central banks, bringing real intaglio-level production quality to what is fundamentally a tourist keepsake.
