0 Euro - Musée Mémorial d'Omaha Beach Anniversary

The 0 euro souvenir note program, administered through a licensing arrangement with the European Central Bank, permits cultural institutions to issue legal-curiosity pieces using the euro visual framework without carrying monetary value. Oberthur Fiduciaire, one of the primary security printers behind actual euro banknote production, handles much of the series — which lends these pieces genuine technical credibility even if their purpose is entirely commemorative.

The Omaha Beach Memorial Museum sits at Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer, directly overlooking the landing sector where the 1st and 29th U.S. Infantry Divisions took catastrophic casualties on 6 June 1944. The 2020 dating likely marks the 76th anniversary, the last major commemoration before the 80th — the pandemic having reduced the 2020 ceremonies to a fraction of their usual scale.
