Additional information

Susak is a Croatian island in the Kvarner Gulf unusual enough to have warranted dedicated linguistic study — its inhabitants spoke a distinct archaic dialect of Croatian so isolated that researchers were still documenting it actively in the late twentieth century. The island sits atop a thick layer of sand rather than the limestone karst that defines virtually every other Adriatic island, a geological anomaly that shaped both its agriculture and its identity.

The Croatian National Bank's island series has run for years, methodically working through the country's more distinctive geographic features. Susak's inclusion follows that pattern.
