Comments

TDP Novitet was a socially-owned enterprise in Travnik, Bosnia, and like hundreds of Yugoslav firms during the hyperinflationary collapse of 1991–1993, it issued internal token currency — bon notes — to pay workers when the banking system could no longer guarantee wage transfers in usable denominations. These notes circulated as de facto scrip, redeemable at company-affiliated shops and canteens rather than through any banking channel.

Travnik itself became a front-line town during the Bosnian War, which disrupted or destroyed many local records. Surviving bon issues from the region are poorly documented precisely because no central authority catalogued them systematically.
