    Hello. I found a 5 kuna note from Croatia that has no back. I'm guessing it's Monopoly money.

    Might as well be a trial note from the time when Croatia went from the dinar to the kuna (early 90s). See here for examples with a printed reverse. Try a Google image search for kuna trial notes, and you'll see quite a few of those - uniface and with both sides printed.

    I'd certainly give the trial piece a place in my collection, and the modern Croatian Kuna has been quite stable against the Euro for 10 years so it is really no more 'Monopoly money' than the US dollar.
    As an EU member Croatia may join the Eurozone soon, and is quite well placed economically with great tourist potential in Istria and the Dalmatian coast.
    I was there a few years ago, and the heritage from the Romans and Venetians is everywhere. The genetic heritage is interesting, I was looking at a bust of a Roman noblewoman in a well preserved Roman temple and a few hours later saw the spitting image of the face on a woman on a bus, the genes of ancient Rome in the jeans of modern Croatia.
