| Comments |
The Liberation Front of the Slovenian People — the Izvršni Odbor — issued this note in 1943 as an occupied-territory instrument, not a sovereign currency. It was denominated in Reichsmarks deliberately: German occupation money was the de facto medium of exchange in Slovenia, and the Front needed something that could circulate plausibly within that reality while asserting its own authority over the financial life of the resistance.
Vlado Jordan, who designed the note under partisan conditions, was working without access to professional printing facilities. The signatures of Vidmar and Kidrič — chairman and secretary of the Executive Committee — gave it whatever political legitimacy a clandestine issuing body could confer in 1943 Slovenia.
