Beschrijving voorzijde The Hungarian-language face of the underlying Austro-Hungarian Bank 10 Korona note (Pick 9, 1904 issue) carries the official Fiume municipal handstamp reading 'CITTÁ DE FIUME', applied by civic decree to this side as Fiume fell within the Hungarian crownlands. The left panel bears the serial number and issuing bank inscription 'OSZTRAK-MAGYAR BANK' above the large denomination legend 'TIZ KORONA' in letterpress, while the right panel presents a circular vignette of a young woman in three-quarter portrait with floral hair ornaments, set within an ornate guilloche border.

Beschrijving keerzijde The German-language reverse of the underlying Austro-Hungarian Bank 10 Kronen note mirrors the obverse layout, with the denomination 'ZEHN KRONEN' rendered in large letterpress text and a circular vignette of a young woman in three-quarter portrait enclosed within a guilloche surround. Any handstamps or overprints encountered on this side are regarded by specialists as privately applied at a considerably later date and are not considered official Fiume municipal issues.

Opmerkingen

Fiume's postwar status produced some of the more administratively chaotic monetary arrangements in interwar Europe. When the city was left in limbo after 1918 — neither ceded to Italy nor retained by Yugoslavia — local authorities improvised. Austrian Austro-Hungarian banknotes already in circulation were counterstamped with a "CF" (Corpus Fiumanum) overprint to distinguish them as locally valid tender while the political dispute dragged on through 1920.

The underlying 1904-dated note was a product of a functioning empire. The stamp that made it a Fiume issue was applied under conditions closer to municipal desperation than central banking.
