History

After

Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, which was later renamed Yugoslavia. The krone replaced the Austro-Hungarian krone at par on November 12, 1918. It circulated alongside the Serbian dinar in State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs with an exchange rate of 1 dinar = 4 kronen in the intermediate time before the adoption of the Yugoslav dinar. The exact date at which the krone ceased to circulate is unclear, with one source indicating that the krone was still in circulation at the end of 1922.[1]

Banknotes

The 1919 First Provisional Issue of the Yugoslav krone was (very similar to the

Cyrillic).[3]

A brief 1919 dinar issue (1⁄2, 1, and 5 dinara)[3] was replaced by the Ministry of Finance of the KSCS with a 1919 Krone Provisional Issue ("krone on dinar" notes), which were printed as dinar and overprinted with krone[4] at the ratio of 1 dinar = 4 kronen. Denominations issued were 2, 4, 20, 40, 80, 400 and 4000 kronen on 1⁄2, 1, 5, 10, 20, 100 and 1000 dinara.[4] Only the 2 kronen on 1⁄2 dinar and 4 kronen on 1 dinar had variants without the overprint.[citation needed] It is as yet ambiguous as to whether the overprinted version was issued before or after.[citation needed]
