Croatian euro coins

The Croatian euro coins are a set of euro coins currently being minted by the Croatian Mint since July 2022.[1][2][3] They are the official euro coins with the national motif of Croatia.

The euro was introduced as a replacement for the Croatian kuna on 1 January 2023.[4] The kuna and the euro were in dual circulation until 14 January 2023 in order to aid the gradual transition to the euro. Prices are displayed in both currencies since 5 September 2022, and will continue to be until 31 December 2023.[5][6] The euro coins were made available for purchase on 1 December 2022.[3][7] Each package cost 100 kunas (13.28 euros).[8]

Remaining kuna coins can be exchanged in all banks, Croatian Post offices and the Croatian Financial Agency (Fina) until 31 December 2023. After that period only the Croatian National Bank (HNB) will handle the exchanges. Kuna banknotes can be exchanged indefinitely, while kuna coins can be exchanged until 31 December 2025.[9]
