The Republic of Serbian Krajina — the self-declared Serb statelet carved from Croatian territory during the 1991–1995 war — never had a functioning central bank in any meaningful sense. Its currency was essentially a political instrument, printed in Belgrade by the same ZIN facility that produced Yugoslav federal notes, and the financial infrastructure of the Krajina was always dependent on Serbia proper. These notes circulated in a territory that international law never recognized and that ceased to exist after Croatia's Operation Storm in August 1995.
Hyperinflation rendered high denominations like this one nearly worthless within months of issue.
