Croatia declared independence in June 1991, and this note was among the first currency issues produced entirely within the country's own borders — a deliberate political act as much as a monetary one. Tiskara Zrinski in Čakovec, primarily a commercial printing house, took on the task under wartime conditions, which likely accounts for the relatively modest security provision: watermark only, with none of the intaglio printing associated with established currency printers.
Zlatko Jakuš handled both design and engraving, an unusual concentration of roles for a single individual on a national issue.
