Banknotes of Serbia

The official currency of Serbia is the dinar (RSD), issued by the National Bank of Serbia. Paper money was first introduced in Serbia in 1843, with the introduction of the first Serbian banknotes. In 2003, Serbia underwent a redenomination, changing the dinar's value by removing a zero from its previous form. Collectors are drawn to Serbia's banknotes due to their vivid designs and historical significance. The 500 dinar note features the portrait of the famous Serbian scientist Nikola Tesla, showcasing an engraving of the power plant at Niagara Falls, where Tesla's inventions were pivotal. This design element highlights the confluence of Serbian culture and scientific achievement.
