Sažetak

Created by the Austro-Hungarian Compromise in 1867, the Austro-Hungarian
Monarchy was an unusual construct even for the lawyers of that time, and did not fit
into the then state-law typology of “complex states”. It was the result of constant confrontations
between Austrian political circles, which wanted to increase the integration
of entities unified under the Habsburg crown, on the one hand, and on the other of
Hungarian political circles, which aspired to the maximum, even to the complete state
independence of Hungary.
As Hungary did not have the strength to found its own national bank (which would
issue its own banknotes), in 1878 the Austrian National Bank became the Austro-
Hungarian Bank, and as the common central bank it was in charge of and issued the
common currency, first the Austrian forint, and then the Austro-Hungarian krone.
Partly because of political differences, partly because of constitutional vagueness,
the common Austro-Hungarian banknotes were a subject of disputes because both sides
gave them a great symbolical importance, and the reactions of the public show how
important this issue was.
