About Bosnia Herzegovina banknotes

When Bosnia and Herzegovina declared independence in 1992, its National Bank issued its own dinar while war raged across the country. Inflation and the war led to several emergency issues. After the 1995 Dayton Agreement a single currency, the convertible mark, was introduced in 1998, originally pegged to the German mark and now to the euro.
