| Additional information |
Yugoslavia's dinar underwent a brutal devaluation cycle through the 1970s, and this small-denomination coin was effectively worthless in purchasing terms long before the series ended in 1981. The Socialist Federal Republic was already running the inflationary deficits that would eventually collapse the currency entirely — by 1989, Yugoslavia was redenominating at a ratio of 10,000 to one.
