Democratic Federal Yugoslavia hadn't yet physically existed when this note was printed — Tito's Jajce declaration came in late 1943, and by early 1944 the new government was commissioning currency from Goznak in Moscow before it controlled a single functioning city. The 5 Dinara was part of that first emission, produced on Soviet presses for a state whose borders were still contested by German occupation forces.
Đorđe Andrejević Kun, the designer, was a prominent Yugoslav Jewish artist who had fled the country after the Axis invasion — his involvement in designing the liberation currency while in exile carries weight the catalog data doesn't convey.
