Slovakia's zero-euro souvenir notes occupy a peculiar commercial niche — legal tender in denomination only, issued under ECB tolerance of the souvenir note format that emerged in France around 2015 and spread across the eurozone as a numismatic curiosity with no redemption obligation. This particular example is a seasonal Christmas release, "Šťastné a veselé" translating roughly as "Happy and Merry." Oberthur Fiduciaire produced it on genuine banknote paper with a watermark, which gives these pieces their tactile credibility despite the denomination making them economically inert from the moment of printing.
