Symbology

Woman with fruit
An allegory of the harvest and of Yugoslav agriculture, paired on the series with the industrial worker of the 10 dinara.

What was happening

The 1000 dinara of the 1978 series, dated 12 August 1978 — the agricultural counterpart to the industrial 10 dinara. The face shows an allegorical woman holding fruit, with a tractor ploughing and hills beyond: the harvest and the mechanised countryside, the other half of the socialist economy the dinar was meant to picture.

The reverse is ornamental; printed at the Zavod za izradu novčanica in Belgrade.
