EuroSouvenir 0 Euro notes occupy a peculiar commercial niche — legal-tender face value of zero, sold as collectibles at tourist attractions across the continent. Oberthur Fiduciaire, one of the major security printers supplying actual circulating currency to several African and European states, produces the entire series using genuine banknote paper and intaglio printing, which gives these souvenirs a tactile authenticity that their novelty status doesn't strictly require.
The Museum of Senses franchise operates locations in multiple Eastern European cities; the Bucharest branch opened relatively recently as part of the interactive museum boom that swept the region after 2015.
