Secours Populaire Français, a French humanitarian association with roots in the Communist resistance networks of the 1940s, issued this brass piece in 2002 to coincide with the physical introduction of euro banknotes and coins. The timing was deliberate — the changeover created genuine hardship for low-income households struggling to revalue prices and savings, and SPF used the "Eurosolidarité" framing to fundraise directly off that anxiety.
These pieces circulated internally at SPF events and solidarity markets, functioning as exchange tokens rather than collectibles.
