Comments

The Schallaburg souvenir zero series belongs to a private scheme launched by the ESBA to sell officially styled but legally valueless notes through tourist sites across Europe. Oberthur Fiduciaire — one of the continent's serious security printers, with a client list that includes genuine central bank issues — produces these to a specification that includes a hologram, giving them a tactile credibility that far exceeds their monetary worth of exactly nothing.

Schallaburg castle in Lower Austria is one of the finest Renaissance structures north of the Alps, the Loggia courtyard being its most reproduced architectural feature.
