Interesting. Does it have any purpose or is it really just a souvenir?

It's just a souvenir. Although it is officially-issued currency, the face value of zero euros renders it worthless as currency.

So it CAN be used then?

They can be used at the Carcassonne Museum to buy a special exclusive visitors item!

It is invention on french business man. You can but these 0 euro notes everywhere in France. Also is common here in Slovakia. It very problematic to collect them because you don't know in which town and which sight is on them.
I wanted to buy one in Carcassonne for sentimental reasons, these notes sell machine was broken. if I remember there was two different notes for Carcassonne and one for Castle. Don't remember because I was very confused about that machine

One of my other hobbies is currency collecting, so the intersection between that and Carcassonne could not be resisted. This is the beginning of another collection.

I think two is the minimum for a collection?

Love those coins! Please expect a flurry of PMs from me asking where I can get similar from; I need a lucky coin!

EDIT: Wow - eBay has loads of them. And there was me worrying about what I was going to do with all this money I don't have...
