Rocher des Aigles — the bird of prey park perched above Rocamadour in the Lot — is one of the more photogenic sites in the Eurosouvenirs program, which launched in 2015 as a licensed novelty format using genuine banknote-grade security features without holding any legal tender status. Oberthur Fiduciaire, one of the few commercial security printers capable of producing euro-specification paper, handles the entire series from its French facilities, giving these souvenirs a material authenticity that distinguishes them sharply from ordinary tourist ephemera. The zero denomination was a deliberate legal workaround — EU regulations prohibit private issuance of any note bearing a real denomination.
