| Additional information |
King Tomislav is traditionally credited as the first king of Croatia, crowned around 925 AD — though the sole surviving source is a letter from Pope John X, which names him king without elaborating on any formal coronation ceremony. The historical record is thin enough that Croatian numismatists have long debated whether a commemorative of this stature overstates the documentary evidence. Croatia adopted the euro on January 1, 2023, making this one of the earliest gold collector issues the Croatian National Bank has produced denominated in euros rather than kuna.
