Comments

Popović Turs was a private tourism or travel enterprise operating out of Jošavka, a village in the Čelinac municipality of Bosnia. This fractional scrip — half a mark — is the kind of locally-issued token currency that appeared when small Yugoslav businesses found exact change chronically unavailable, particularly during the inflationary pressures of the 1980s and early 1990s. The sole security measure is a stamp impression, which tells you everything about the issuer's resources and the note's intended circulation radius: purely local, probably within a single establishment or a tight cluster of affiliated services.
