The Euro Souvenir program was launched in 2015 by a consortium of European collector shops and tourist attractions, producing legal-tender-adjacent novelty notes that deliberately mimic Euro banknote aesthetics without being official ECB issues. They carry no monetary value but are printed to the same security specifications — by the same high-security printers — as genuine currency, which is precisely what makes them interesting as objects. Oberthur Fiduciaire, one of Europe's principal banknote printing houses, handles much of the output.
Motorworld Classics Berlin, the automotive lifestyle complex in Tempelhof, joined the program in 2019. The R. Faille signature appears across the entire souvenir series in his capacity as CEO of the issuing organization, not as a central bank governor.
