Emblem of SFR Yugoslavia |
The emblem of Yugoslavia featured six torches, surrounded by wheat with a red star at its top, and burning together in one flame; this represented the brotherhood and unity of the six federal republics mentioned above; forming Yugoslavia.
The date imprinted is 29 November 1943 - on this date the Anti-Fascist Council of National Liberation of Yugoslavia (AVNOJ) met in Jajce on its second meeting and formed the basis for post-war organisation of the country, establishing a federal republic (this date was celebrated as Republic Day after World War II).
In 1992, Four of the six republics declared independence and issued their own currencies shortly after.
From 1966 to 1994, 5 revaluations of the Yugoslavian Dinar took place.
