| Comments |
Euro Souvenir notes are a private collectibles scheme launched by UEBP, issuing denominated-style pieces tied to specific French regions and landmarks — none are legal tender in any jurisdiction. Oberthur Fiduciaire, one of France's principal security printers, produces the series, lending it genuine anti-counterfeiting infrastructure despite the purely commemorative function.
The Puy-de-Dôme itself is a dormant stratovolcano in the Auvergne, last active roughly 11,000 years ago. A meteorological observatory has operated near the summit since 1875.
