EuroSouvenir notes are a collector-driven series sanctioned under a European licensing arrangement that permits the production of legal-tender-format souvenirs at face denomination zero — meaning they carry no monetary value but are printed to banknote specification by genuine security printers. Oberthur Fiduciaire, which has produced currency for dozens of sovereign issuers, prints these to the same technical standards as circulating paper.
The Musée de la Grande Guerre in Meaux sits near the Marne battlefield and holds one of the more serious First World War material collections in France, built largely around the personal collection of Jean-Pierre Verney.
