Not a circulating note — this is a cinderella or fantasy piece issued as a commemorative tribute to Pasteur, carrying no legal tender status in France or anywhere else. The French Republic has issued euro banknotes through the Eurosystem since 2002, and no national French franc series has existed since then. The denomination "22 francs" corresponds to no historical French franc series, confirming this is a purely commemorative artifact.
Gabris is a Slovak designer known for producing high-quality fantasy notes on genuine banknote paper with real watermarks, which can mislead buyers unfamiliar with the genre.
