Inscriptions include the denomination 1000 SCUDI, the national motto LIBERTAS, the issuing authority SAN MARINO, and the legend EUROPA, integrated across the note's layout. |

| Comments |
San Marino's commemorative note program has consistently operated outside the pressures of a functioning monetary system — the republic uses the euro by agreement but has no central bank of issue, meaning these notes exist purely as collectibles produced under state authority rather than as instruments of exchange. That distinction matters for how the series is catalogued and valued.
The 2025 date places this among the more recent releases in an ongoing run that has drawn mixed reception from serious collectors, some of whom question the long-term market for non-circulating material from a microstate with no issuing tradition.
