Yup, I've got it, sorry for not responding earlier, but I was waiting
for the confirmation from my friends in the government.

This is the case:

Decimal separator is always comma. At one point in time there was a
pressure to use period, but official one wasn't changed according to my
sources.

Grouping is correct. 3 digits in each group, groups separated by space.

Negative numbers are always represented with the minus in front of
number, and as close as possible (not in front of the currency symbol) .

That would make your example look like:
  123.45        123,45 Kn        HRK 123,45
  -123.45       -123,45 Kn       HRK -123,45
  123456.78     123 456,78 Kn    HRK 123 456,78
  -123456.78    -123 456,78 Kn   HRK -123 456,78

Hope this helps,
