| Comments |
The Republic of Serbian Krajina was a self-declared Serb entity in Croatian territory, unrecognized internationally and entirely dependent on Belgrade for material support — including its currency. This note was printed at the ZIN facility in Belgrade, which also produced Yugoslav federal issues concurrently, and the Krajina authorities had no independent monetary infrastructure whatsoever. The "Narodna Banka" in the issuer name was nominal.
The RSK ceased to exist in August 1995 when Croatian forces overran the territory in Operation Storm. Notes from this issuer had an exceptionally short window of use, and the print run of just over twelve million is modest for a wartime emergency series.
