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.
