| Opschrift voorzijde | The Pavillion of the European Community - Expo '92 - Seville THE SAVINGS BANK OF EUROPE Eufiserv is an initiative of the European Savings Banks Group. It is an international telecommunications network that allows cross-border ATM (Automatic Teller Machine) transactions. Wherever you see the Eufiserv sign, and you have the appropriate bank card, you can withdraw local cash. Just like back home. What's more, as soon as Europe gets its single currency, Eufiserv will be one of the first networks to provide you with ECU's via its ATM's. This Specimen ECU-note is sponsored by Eufiserv |

The ECU — European Currency Unit — was a basket currency used for accounting and interbank settlement within the EEC, never legal tender in any member state. A handful of private issuers nevertheless produced ECU-denominated notes as souvenirs and promotional instruments, exploiting a legal grey zone that the European Commission tolerated but never formally endorsed. The European Savings Banks Group issued this piece tied to the Seville Expo, making it a commemorative fantasy note in practical terms — no obligation of redemption, no central bank backing.
Giesecke & Devrient's involvement lends it genuine production quality, and Doppée's engraving work was a recurring feature across several ECU novelty issues of the period. Collectible largely because the ECU itself ceased to exist when the euro launched in 1999.
