The 10,000 Tolar was the highest denomination in the Slovenian series and remained so throughout the tolar's entire existence — the currency was replaced by the euro on 1 January 2007, making Slovenia the first former Yugoslav republic to adopt it. The holographic strip on this issue was added as an upgrade to earlier printings of P#24, which had circulated without it; the distinction matters for collectors because the two variants are catalogued together but are not identical notes.
The printed date of 30 April 1945 is not a production date — it marks the liberation of Slovenia from German occupation, a founding reference point the Bank of Slovenia used consistently across the tolar series.
