The National Bank of Serbia issued a decision on May 4, 2012, to introduce a 100-dinar banknote featuring the portrait of Nikola Tesla. The note incorporates advanced security features including a watermark, embedded silver thread with microlettering, ultraviolet-reactive fibers, and intaglio printing techniques. Its design utilizes a horizontal front layout with Tesla's scientific contributions and a vertical back displaying his electromagnetic motor, with the regulation entering into force upon publication in the Official Gazette.
