The zero-euro souvenir note program was launched in France in 2016 by the ESBA as a licensed commercial venture — the notes bear genuine euro formatting and pass through Oberthur Fiduciaire's security printing line, but hold no legal tender status anywhere. Utah Beach was among the earliest museum sites to adopt the format, and the Normandy landing sites collectively became some of the highest-selling issues in the program's first years. The hologram strip is the same optically variable device used on circulating euro notes, which is precisely why the Banque de France initially scrutinized the scheme before permitting it.
