Description: This pack of Drina Extra Filter cigarettes is a classic soft type, with a red and white design and a brand name printed in two languages – Latin and Cyrillic – reflecting the bilingual market in the then Yugoslavia. A shield with a coat of arms is visible in the center, and the original old excise sticker is on top. The quantity indicated on the side is 20 cigarettes. The design is minimalist, in keeping with the aesthetics of Balkan packaging of that period. The pack is completely unpacked and has a pull-out opening strip.
Value assessment:
-
Collectible value: Medium–high, as it is historical packaging from the former Yugoslavia, and the condition – unpacked – is extremely important for collectors.

Condition assessment: Unopened, with original protective film, very good condition.
-
Historical data and popularity: Drina is one of the oldest tobacco brands in the Balkans, produced in various Yugoslav republics. Although widely distributed in the region, older unwrapped units are becoming increasingly rare.
