| Comments |
By 1943, the Narodna Banka Kraljevine Jugoslavije existed in exile — the government that authorized this note had fled to London following the April 1941 Axis invasion and subsequent dismemberment of Yugoslavia. Notes issued under the royal banking authority during this period carry an administrative fiction: a sovereign institution printing currency for a country it no longer physically controlled.
The P#35A designation distinguishes this from closely related signature varieties. Survival rates are uneven across the series — wartime exile printing runs were often poorly documented, and distribution into occupied territory was limited at best.
