Šibenik holds the distinction of being one of the few medieval cities on the Adriatic coast founded by Croats rather than Roman or Byzantine settlers, and this note leans into that civic pride with some self-awareness — the "bagatina" was a low-value copper coin circulating along the Dalmatian coast during Venetian rule, an odd but deliberate choice of monetary unit for a 21st-century local scrip.
Issued as a promotional or commemorative instrument rather than genuine tender, the watermark security feature is an unusual investment for what amounts to municipal ephemera — suggesting the city took the project seriously as a collectible artifact from the outset.
