| Comments |
Trgotekstil was a Yugoslav textile trading enterprise based in Skopje, and this note is an example of the emergency scrip — locally called "bon" — that proliferated across Yugoslav republics and municipalities during the severe federal currency shortages of the late 1980s and early 1990s. State-owned enterprises, cooperatives, and retail chains issued their own denominated vouchers when dinar supplies from Belgrade dried up or arrived so devalued they were functionally useless within days of receipt.
Company-issued scrip of this type was redeemable against goods or wages within the issuing firm's network, not against any banking institution. The 5000-dinar denomination reflects the hyperinflationary spiral that made four-digit face values routine by 1989–1990.
