The zero-euro souvenir note program, commercially administered through a network of licensed vendors and printed by Oberthur Fiduciaire under authorization from the European Central Bank, began in France around 2015 and expanded rapidly into regional and thematic subjects across Europe. This example commemorates Asturian mining — the coal and zinc extraction industry that dominated the region's economy through much of the twentieth century before collapsing under structural decline in the 1980s and 1990s, triggering some of the most serious industrial labor conflicts in post-Franco Spain.
Legal tender for zero euros: technically a valid denomination, practically a collector's piece from the first print run.
