By 1990, Yugoslav dinar notes were losing relevance almost as fast as they were printed. Inflation that had briefly exceeded 2,600% annually in 1989 was temporarily suppressed by Ante Marković's January 1990 monetary reform, which introduced the "new dinar" at 10,000 old dinars to one — making this 200-dinar note worth a fraction of what its denomination implied within months of issue.
ZIN in Belgrade printed the entire series domestically, an arrangement Yugoslavia had maintained since the 1970s to avoid foreign currency expenditure on security printing contracts.
