Slovenia adopted the euro on 1 January 2007, becoming the first former Yugoslav republic to do so. The transition required the Slovenian Mint to coordinate with the European Central Bank on a compressed production schedule, with circulation pieces ready for the January changeover while the tolar was simultaneously withdrawn — a dual-currency window of just two weeks.
The "2nd map" reverse, introduced across the eurozone in 2007, replaced the original EU map that had omitted the ten 2004 accession states. Slovenia joined the euro just as the corrected design came into force, meaning it never issued the first-map type at all.
