| Reverse description | A barn swallow (Hirundo rustica) depicted in full flight occupies the central field. The numeral '2' appears to the right of the bird. The scientific name 'HIRUNDO RUSTICA' is inscribed in the lower portion of the field beneath the swallow, in Latin characters. The naturalistic rendering of the swallow reflects the series' characteristic use of Slovenian fauna as decorative motifs. |

| Additional information |
Slovenia introduced its own currency in October 1991, just months after declaring independence from Yugoslavia — one of the fastest monetary transitions of any post-communist state. The tolar was pegged to the Deutsche Mark through much of its circulation life, a deliberate anchor chosen to signal fiscal discipline to Western institutions during accession negotiations. This denomination ran continuously until Slovenia adopted the euro in January 2007, at which point the entire tolar series was retired after barely fifteen years in circulation.
