EuroSouvenir's zero-euro program has been running since 2015, producing legal-tender-adjacent collector pieces under a framework tolerated by the European Central Bank precisely because they carry no monetary value and therefore require no redemption infrastructure. Oberthur Fiduciaire prints them to the same security specifications as circulating euro notes — same paper substrate, same intaglio feel — which is the commercial point: handling one is meant to be indistinguishable from the real thing.
Split's inclusion reflects the city's surge in tourism following Croatian euro adoption in January 2023, which made souvenir euro-format notes suddenly far more coherent as mementos than they had been under the kuna.
