Lot of 4x Croatia 1991-1993 Banknotes, Various Denominations, All UNC, 4pcs

The Republic of Croatia borders Slovenia, Hungary, and Serbia on the coast of the Adriatic Sea. The original Croats arrived in the late 6th century, when the area was still largely referred to by the Classical name of Illyria. It became an independent kingdom in 925 with the coronation of Tomislav, but the continuous threat of the Ottoman Empire and rivalry with the Republic of Venice saw it join with the Habsburg monarchy in 1527. It remained tightly bound to Austria and Hungary until after World War I, when it became part of Yugoslavia, before finally declaring its independence in 1991. A fierce War of Independence began, and the new state of Croatia was officially recognized in 1992.

Following independence, Croatia fell into a period of severe hyperinflation. This is reflected in this lot of banknotes, where three notes from 1991 with the relatively common denominations of 5, 10, and 25 dinara are followed in 1993 by a note worth 100,000 dinara. All notes are Uncirculated.
