P#6 is a straightforward overprint issue — the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes had no time and no printing infrastructure to produce original notes in its first months of existence, so it simply overstamped existing Austro-Hungarian stock. The 10 Kruna denomination retained the Habsburg face values and design wholesale, with a Serbian-language overprint applied to assert the new state's authority over currency already in circulation.
Josef Pfeiffer was an Austro-Hungarian court designer; his involvement predates the Yugoslav state entirely. The #6B suffix distinguishes a specific overprint or paper variant within the series.
