The 0 Euro souvenir note program, administered through EEBS and printed by Oberthur Fiduciaire, operates on a commercially licensed model: institutions and municipalities pay to commission a design, which is then sold as a collectible with no tender value whatsoever. Štefánik is a natural subject for Slovak commemorative output — the astronomer, general, and co-founder of Czechoslovakia died in a 1919 plane crash near Bratislava under circumstances that remain disputed, with theories ranging from mechanical failure to friendly fire. He never saw the republic he helped create survive its first year.
Gabris designed the note; Oberthur supplied genuine euro-grade security features, which is precisely the point — collectors pay for the feel of authenticity.
