A licensed promotional piece tied to Hasbro's Astérix-themed Monopoly edition, released for the French market. These notes function as game currency only — no issuing authority, no legal standing, no monetary policy behind them. Hasbro has produced dozens of such themed sets, and the Astérix franchise, one of the most commercially durable in European publishing history, has appeared across an unusually wide range of licensed merchandise since the 1960s.
Collectors of Monopoly ephemera treat complete unused sets as more desirable than played examples, since game currency deteriorates quickly through handling.
