Interesting fact

The 10 Lipa coin from Croatia has a unique feature - it has a Latin text inscription on its obverse side, which reads "REPUBLIKA HRVATSKA" (Republic of Croatia) in uppercase letters. This is because Croatia was a part of Yugoslavia until 1991, and the country's official language was Serbo-Croatian, which used the Latin alphabet. After Croatia declared its independence, the official language became Croatian, and the Latin alphabet was retained for official use. This coin was minted between 1994 and 2022, and it's a common circulating coin in Croatia.
