| Comments |
Putnik was the state-owned Yugoslav travel agency established to manage both domestic and foreign tourism under centralized control. This 1.000 Dinara piece is a travel voucher or internal scrip rather than a banknote in any conventional sense — issued by a commercial enterprise, not the National Bank, and valid only within Putnik's own operational framework. It circulated among travelers and tourists moving through Yugoslavia at a moment when hard currency was tightly restricted and foreign visitor spending had to be carefully channeled through state structures.
The FNRJ designation places it precisely in the 1946–1963 constitutional period, before the federation was restyled as the SFRY.
