A week ago a friend of mine visited Rome as part of his itinerary of his 10 days vacation in Italy. Although i was not able to tour him around due to work constraints he was able to manage roaming around the tourist spot here. Upon knowing he purchased some souvenirs, i ask him if the shop where he bought some stuff has some Zero Euros available and luckily they have.
It's origins stem from France in 2015 after Richard Faille, creator of popular French currency souvenirs, decided to create euros that promote tourism.
