10 Para small

Yugoslavia's 1994 coinage was struck during one of the worst hyperinflationary episodes in recorded history. By January 1994, the dinar was being redenominated for the fourth time in under a decade, and monthly inflation had reached approximately 313 million percent. A 10 para coin was, in any practical sense, worthless before it left the mint.

The KM#162.1 designation distinguishes this from the near-identical KM#162.2 variant by a detail in the coin's edge or die finishing — worth noting for specialists working through late Yugoslav minor coinage.
