Slovenia Banknotes Catalog
The history of banknotes in Slovenia reflects the country's economic and political evolution. From its independence in 1991 to the adoption of the euro in 2007, Slovenia has undergone significant changes in its national currency.
The Slovenian tolar
Following independence, Slovenia introduced the tolar as its official currency in October 1991. The tolar banknotes featured designs that highlighted Slovenian culture and history. Denominations included 10, 20, 50, 50, 100, 200, 500, 500, 1000, 5000 and 10000 tolars. The 10000 tolar bill, the highest denomination, featured a portrait of the poet Ivan Cankar.
Changeover to the euro
On January 1, 2007, Slovenia became the first country of the former Yugoslavia to adopt the euro. Euro banknotes are identical in all eurozone countries, but the coins have a national design on the reverse. During a brief transition period, both the tolar and the euro circulated simultaneously, allowing citizens to gradually adapt to the new currency.
