History reference:
The Serbian dinar is the national currency of Serbia. After the conquest of the Serbs by the Ottomans and until the middle of the 19th century, various monetary units circulated in parallel on its te...rritory. There were Ottoman mints in Novo Brdo, Kuchayn and Belgrade. The smallest coin was "para", whose name the Ottomans borrowed from the Persian word - coin. During World War II, Germany occupied Yugoslavia. The new Serbian dinar replaced the Yugoslav dinar in 1941, pegged to the German Reichsmark at a rate of 250 dinars to one Reichsmark. After the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1944, the Yugoslav dinar returned instead of the Serbian dinar at the rate of one Yugoslav dinar to 20 Serbian dinars.
