| Obverse description | The state arms of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia occupy the central field, depicting a stylised torch flame flanked by sheaves of wheat bound at the base by a ribbon inscribed with the founding date 29•XI•1943, surmounted by a five-pointed star. A beaded inner border frames the device. The bilingual legend curves around the periphery in Cyrillic above and Latin below, reading СФР ЈУГОСЛАВИЈА and SFR JUGOSLAVIJA. |

| Additional information |
By 1990, Yugoslavia's federal monetary system was effectively disintegrating alongside the federation itself. The National Bank of Yugoslavia continued issuing coinage even as republican governments were drafting independence declarations, making this brief two-year run one of the last attempts at a unified Yugoslav currency before Slovenia and Croatia broke away in June 1991.
The dinar had already been redenominated in January 1990 — 10,000 old dinars to one new — under Prime Minister Ante Marković's stabilization program, which briefly succeeded in cutting hyperinflation before political collapse rendered the effort moot.
