| Reverse description | The standard Euro Souvenir reverse carries a composite vignette of celebrated European landmarks rendered in purple and rose tones against a lavender guilloche underprint: the Torre de Belém at left, the Eiffel Tower dominating the centre in pink, the Colosseum in the lower centre, the Sagrada Família at right, and additional architectural motifs including the Brandenburg Gate arch. A vertical security thread runs through the centre of the note, flanked by a ring of gold and blue EU stars along the upper border. The denomination "0 €" appears at upper left, and the "EURO SOUVENIR" logotype in a cartouche is positioned at lower right. |

The 0 Euro souvenir note program, administered through various European issuers and printed by Oberthur Fiduciaire, has no legal tender status but is produced to full ECB-specification security standards — including embedded security thread — which is precisely why customs authorities occasionally flag them. This example was commissioned by the Deutscher Marinebund e.V., the German Naval Association founded in 1891, tied to the Laboe Naval Memorial and the U 995, a Type VIIC/41 submarine beached at Laboe since 1965 and one of only a handful of surviving World War II U-boats anywhere in the world.
