Banknotes of Croatia

The Croatian kuna ceased to exist on January 1, 2023, when Croatia adopted the euro. It is the most recent addition to the pre-euro legacy, and that makes it the easiest to obtain in perfect condition: it was in wallets just a short while ago.

A currency named after a marten

"Kuna" means marten. The name comes from the Middle Ages, when marten furs were used as a means of payment in inland Croatia. The fractional unit, the lipa, means "linden tree."

Who appears on them

Ruđer Bošković, Ivan Gundulić, Petar Zrinski, and other figures from Croatian history, with cities and monuments on the reverses: Dubrovnik, Osijek, Zadar, and Zagreb Cathedral.

Why buy it now

Newly withdrawn currencies go through a period of abundance before becoming scarce: there is still uncirculated material available, and prices do not yet reflect the fact that no more will ever be printed. The same happened with Slovenia and Lithuania in their time.
