EuroSouvenir notes are issued under the DNAB (De Nederlandsche Apparatenfabriek) licensing framework, which authorizes the production of legal-design-compliant zero-denomination collector pieces across European tourist sites and attractions. They carry no face value and are not legal tender anywhere, but Oberthur Fiduciaire produces them to the same security-paper and intaglio standards applied to circulating currency — a deliberate choice that makes counterfeiting them pointless while driving the collector appeal.
The orangutan subject almost certainly ties this piece to a zoo or wildlife conservation fundraising outlet, a distribution channel DNAB has favored heavily since expanding the program after 2015.
