Anyone ID this Croatian note? (Error note?)

Can anyone ID this uniface Croatian note? See:

The blank back may possibly be a printing error because I received
some P30a with partially printed backs in the same lot. What do you
think?

Have any of you had any such error notes?

Many thanks

Hi !
that is a print proof made in Munchen, Germany, by Giesecke & Devrient
printing factory for the croatian kuna in 1993 circa.

You have the obverse of the trial printing on non watermarked paper for
the "intaglio printing"; there are also the trials for the offset
printing, for the reverse of the note too.
In other words it is not an error, only a trial print that should be
destroyed; but it is nicer in the hands of colletors.
There are a lot of them on the market and the are very cheap; around 1
$ each. They go from 5 kuna to 1000 kuna. The 10 kuna is difficult to
find. (not yet seen with my eyes 'til now)
