The 0 Euro souvenir note program, administered by EuroSouvenir and distributed through tourist venues across Europe, uses genuine Oberthur Fiduciaire security paper and passes most basic authentication checks — a deliberate choice that makes these notes interesting to collectors even if they carry no monetary obligation. Oberthur prints them to the same technical specifications as circulating currency, including embedded security features.
The Royal Palace on Dam Square began its life as Amsterdam's city hall, completed in 1665, and was converted to a royal residence by Louis Bonaparte in 1808. It remains Crown property, used for state receptions rather than as a working palace.
