| Additional information |
Slovenia introduced the tolar on October 8, 1991, just months after declaring independence from Yugoslavia — at the time, one of the fastest currency transitions any newly independent state had managed. The tolar replaced the Yugoslav dinar at parity initially, then floated freely as the new central bank established monetary credibility without the hyperinflationary collapse that hit several other post-Yugoslav economies.
This 2001 issue marks the tenth anniversary of that introduction. The .900 fineness is consistent with Slovenian gold commemorative production of the period, struck in relatively small numbers for collector distribution rather than any circulation purpose.
