A European localisation prototype of Pokémon Gold & Silver, dated December 14, 2000. This build is available compiled for the German and French languages. This build is the first to use Nintendo's final ROM naming nomenclature, but is not the final build - and considering that the Dec 15, 2000 build is also version 0.0, and is marked as "final", despite not being final, it is likely that this build was not even sent to Nintendo's Lotcheck department for testing, and was instead renamed in preparation for being sent to Lotcheck.
