EUR IN CROATIA

On 1 January 2023, Croatia will replace the kuna with the euro, which will become our new currency. With its accession to the European Union, Croatia has also decided to become a member of the euro area, and after nine and a half years of membership in the Union, it is ready to take that important step.

 

Euro coin series comprises eight different denominations: 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cent, €1 and €2.

The geographical map of Croatia is featured on the €2 coin, the edge of which features a circular

inscription of a verse on freedom ("O lijepa, o draga, o slatka slobodo") by Dubrovnik poet Ivan Gundulić. Kuna, as the symbol of the Croatian monetary tradition since the 13th century, is featured on a one euro denomination.

The portrait of the inventor Nikola Tesla is featured on denominations of 50, 20, and 10 cents.

The official two-letter code for Croatia, HR, is featured on 5, 2 and 1 cent coins, written in a Glagolitic script in a form that links these two letters into a single typographic symbol.

The Croatian checkerboard is the motif featured in the background of all coins.
