| Comments |
The 1955 series marked a deliberate aesthetic shift for Yugoslav currency — ZIN, the Belgrade state printer, had by this point developed enough in-house engraving capability that the country no longer needed to contract abroad as it had during the interwar period. Krnjajić's engraving work on this note reflects that matured domestic tradition, though it still draws on the fine-line intaglio techniques absorbed from earlier European collaborations.
Yugoslavia's 1955 redenomination replaced the 1944–45 emission at par, making this series administratively clean but short-lived — a further conversion in 1966 would lop zeros again, reducing 500 Dinara to half a New Dinar.
