Euroscope's souvenir "0 euro" series is a collector-oriented novelty program launched around 2015, produced to genuine banknote specification — Enschedé's involvement is not decorative. The Haarlem press has printed currency for dozens of issuing authorities since the eighteenth century, and using them lends these tourist notes the paper feel and watermark security of actual circulating issues, which is precisely the commercial point.
The Phare des Baleines, at the northwestern tip of Île de Ré, has guided Atlantic shipping since 1682. The current tower dates to 1854.
