| Obverse description | The obverse presents a central vignette of the Mercado Central of Valencia, rendered in warm ochre and rose tones, with its ornate Art Nouveau iron-and-glass facade occupying the majority of the face. A large stylised numeral '0' in black appears to the right of centre, with the EU flag in the upper left corner and a ring of yellow stars along the left border. The serial number prefix VEAU is printed in the lower right, alongside the CEO signature facsimile. |

A portrait of the Mona Lisa appears on the right side, and the denomination '0€' is printed in the lower left area alongside the series inscription. |

The 0 Euro souvenir note program, administered under EuroSouvenir and printed by Oberthur Fiduciaire, operates under a formal agreement with the European Central Bank permitting the use of the euro visual identity on non-legal-tender collector items — an unusual carve-out that has allowed hundreds of regional and touristic subjects across the continent to appear on technically "euro-format" paper since the program's launch around 2015.
Valencia's Mercado Central, opened in 1928, is one of the largest operating fresh-produce markets in Europe. The souvenir note market for Spanish subjects has been particularly active, with multiple Valencia-area releases issued across successive years.
