Serbia 10 Dinars (2006)

The Serbian dinar replaced the Yugoslav dinar at par in 2003, when Yugoslavia was transformed into the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro. Montenegro had already adopted the Deutsche Mark and later the euro when the mark was replaced by it.

Serbian 10 dinars banknote was originally released in 2000 in predominantly ochre-yellow color with brown and green tones. It is gradually replaced with slightly lighter 2006 issue.
