The Republic of Serbian Krajina was an unrecognized breakaway state carved out of Croatian territory during the Yugoslav wars, and its banknotes were effectively subsidized by Belgrade — printed at the Serbian state mint, ZIN, with paper and logistics the Krajina authorities could not have supplied themselves. This 100,000,000 dinar denomination is a direct artifact of the hyperinflationary collapse that consumed Yugoslavia's successor economies in 1993, the same year the rump Federal Republic of Yugoslavia recorded one of the worst hyperinflations in recorded history.
The Krajina ceased to exist in August 1995, when Croatian forces overran the territory in Operation Storm. Whatever notes remained in circulation became worthless overnight.
