The Croatian Red Cross has issued commemorative "kuna" voucher notes tied to its blood donation drives since at least the 1990s, each one numbered to a specific collection action. These are not legal tender and have no exchange value — they function as donor keepsakes and promotional items, distributed at collection events. The 36th action places this note well into the post-independence series, by which point the Red Cross had developed a consistent if modest tradition of producing these in small, action-specific print runs.
Collector interest is niche but genuine, driven almost entirely by completionists working through the numbered action sequence.
