| Comments |
By the time this note entered circulation, Yugoslavia's monetary system was already unraveling. The 1989–90 hyperinflation — peaking at over 2,600% annually — meant low-denomination paper like this 10 Dinara became functionally worthless within weeks of issue. The National Bank was printing and retiring denominations faster than the public could spend them, and the entire dinar series of this period was effectively rendered obsolete by the 1990 redenomination, which lopped four zeros off the currency.
ZIN's engravers are well-documented here: Hrvanović and Damjanovski handled the obverse plates, Medecijan and Obradović the reverse — an unusually full attribution for a note that had almost no economic life.
