Yugoslavian Hard Dinar (1966–1990)

The Yugoslav dinar was the currency of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. It was subdivided into 100 para. The ISO 4217 code for the dinar was YUD. The first dinar was introduced in 1918, replacing the Austro-Hungarian krone at par. In 1991, the last year of the SFRY, the dinar was replaced by the Croatian dinar, Slovenian tolar and Macedonian denar, at a rate of 1 dinar = 1,000,000 old dinars. The first banknotes were issued by the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1920, in denominations of 10, 20 and 50 dinars, followed by 100 dinars in 1923 and 500 dinars in 1925. In 1941, the Yugoslav dinar was replaced by the Serbian dinar. In 1945, the new Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia issued denominations of 50 para, 1, 2, 5 and 10 dinars. Banknotes were introduced in 1946 in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 dinars. 100 dinar notes were added in 1953, followed by 500 dinars in 1970, 1000 dinars in 1979 and 5000 dinars in 1980. In 1991, the SFRY was dissolved and the Serbian dinar remained the currency of the rump Yugoslavia, which comprised Serbia and Montenegro. In 2003, the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was renamed Serbia and Montenegro and introduced the euro as its currency, at a rate of 1 euro = 1.95583 dinars.
