| Reverse description | Printed in red on cream paper, the reverse carries a large vignette of the Yugoslav state coat of arms at the left — a torch flame above a crossed hammer and wheat sheaf on a shield, encircled by a six-pointed star wreath with the date '29-XI-1943' on a ribbon — set against a dense guilloche background. The central field lists the six constituent republics in Cyrillic and Latin scripts. To the right, a numeral '2' enclosed within an ornamental guilloche panel is accompanied by the word for 'dinar' in four official languages. |

The "Informbiro" designation attached to this note refers to the Cominform crisis of 1948, when Yugoslavia's expulsion from the Soviet-led information bureau triggered a rupture that left the Narodna Banka holding printed currency it could never release. This 2 Dinara series was ready — ZIN had done its job — but the political fallout from Tito's break with Stalin forced a redesign, and the 1950 issue was shelved before distribution.
Unissued survivors reached collectors primarily through institutional leakage decades later, not through any formal release.
