5 Europ Ceros Pattern

Montserrat's participation in the "Europ Ceros" pattern series was part of a broader speculative project circulating among collectors and mints in the mid-2000s, imagining coinage for territories unlikely ever to adopt the euro.

These patterns were never sanctioned for circulation and carry no legal tender status under any jurisdiction.
