EuroSouvenir notes are legal collector's items issued under a European Central Bank exemption that permits zero-denomination pieces for commemorative purposes, provided they cannot be mistaken for genuine currency. Oberthur Fiduciaire, one of Europe's principal security printers, produces the series under strict anti-counterfeiting specifications — the same house that prints banknotes for numerous African and Pacific central banks.
The Overlord Museum sits directly adjacent to the Omaha Beach landing sector in Colleville-sur-Mer, holding one of the largest privately assembled collections of D-Day materiel in Normandy. This note was issued for the site's visitor trade in 2017, the seventy-third anniversary year of the landings — an unremarkable number, which suggests the release schedule tracks print demand rather than commemorative milestones.
