| Comments |
The "Srbijanka" nickname — applied informally to this and related notes by the Yugoslav public — reflected the increasingly Serbian-dominated character of the federal monetary authority as the republics fractured. By 1991, Slovenia and Croatia had already moved toward monetary independence, and the federal dinar was effectively a Serbian instrument in all but name. Užice, where Štampa Rujno operated, sits in western Serbia; the choice to print there rather than in Belgrade was a matter of capacity, not symbolism.
