| Comments |
The Republic of Serbian Krajina was an unrecognized Serb-controlled statelet within Croatia, and its banknotes were effectively printed and backed by Belgrade throughout its brief existence. This 100,000 dinar note appeared in 1993 during a hyperinflationary spiral that was consuming the Yugoslav successor economies simultaneously — the RSK's currency was pegged informally to the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia's dinar, meaning its value eroded in near-lockstep with Belgrade's own collapsing monetary situation.
ZIN printed over twelve million of these, yet the issuing state ceased to exist in August 1995 when Croatian military operations Bljesak and Oluja dismantled the Krajina entirely within a matter of days.
