Energoinvest was one of Yugoslavia's largest industrial conglomerates, a Sarajevo-based holding with divisions spanning electrical engineering, construction, and energy infrastructure. During the hyperinflationary collapse of the Yugoslav dinar in the early 1990s, some enterprises issued internal bon — quasi-currency vouchers — to pay workers when official banknotes either lost value faster than they could be printed or simply weren't available in usable quantities. This note originates from RO Rasklopna Oprema, the switchgear manufacturing division.
These factory-issued instruments occupy a genuinely awkward category: not recognized legal tender, not scrip in the classic company-town sense, but emergency wage tokens born from monetary disintegration.
