Slovenia's first independent banknote series was issued in October 1991, weeks after the ten-day war with Yugoslav federal forces had ended. The 100 Tolarjev was part of that founding set, replacing the Slovenian tolar coupon — a provisional currency introduced just days after independence was declared in June 1991 to prevent capital flight as the Yugoslav dinar collapsed.
Printed by Cetis in Celje, this was one of the few cases in the early 1990s wave of post-Yugoslav currency issuance where a newly independent state had a domestic security printer capable of handling the work. The print run of just over twelve million is modest for a circulating denomination of this size, and attrition was high — the tolar coupon series was quickly superseded.
