The Croatian dinar was the official currency of Croatia between 1991 and 1994, replacing the Yugoslav dinar. The currency's ISO 4217 code was HRD.
The Croatian dinar replaced the 1990 version of the Yugoslav dinar at par on 23 December 1991. It was a transitional currency introduced following Croatia's declaration of independence. During its existence, the dinar declined in value by a factor of about 70. On 30 May 1994, the dinar was replaced by the kuna at a rate of 1 kuna = 1000 dinara. The currency was not used in the occupied territories comprising the Republic of Serbian Krajina.
The obverse of all banknotes was the same, with a picture of Croatian Dubrovnik scientist Ruđer Bošković. Notes up to 1000 dinara had the Zagreb cathedral on reverse. The higher denominations featured the Ivan Meštrović sculpture History of the Croats on the reverse.
