Yugoslavia

The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia is in South-Eastern Europe. It was composed of six autonomous republics: Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia and Montenegro with two autonomous provinces within Serbia: Kosovo-Metohija and Vojvodina. After the breakup of Yugoslavia in 1992, the Federation of Serbia and Montenegro was created.

National Bank of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes

Early provisional issues from this authority in 1919 were Austro-Hungarian notes overprinted with postage or ink stamps. The first notes created specifically for the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes were printed by Bank of France later that same year.

National Bank of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia

The following notes were printed by the Institute for Manufacturing Banknotes located in Belgrade. Banque de France provided technical assisance in bringing its printing processes to the IMB, and French artists were often used for the art and engraving. One can see the resemblance to the French style.
