| Obverse description | The obverse features the celebrated 'White Angel' fresco from the Mileševa Monastery, depicting the Archangel Gabriel rendered in a Byzantine artistic style. The angelic figure is portrayed in three-quarter view with serene, idealized facial features characteristic of 13th-century Serbian medieval fresco painting. The legend encircling the design reads 'PRUEBA TRIAL ESSAI PROBE REPUBLIKA SRBIJA G 2004', inscribed in the field and around the periphery in Latin script. The mint mark 'G' for Bayerisches Münzkontor appears within the legend. The image is widely regarded as one of the most iconic examples of Serbian medieval religious art, symbolizing faith, hope, love, peace, and the Resurrection of Christ. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a classically draped female figure seated in three-quarter profile on an ornate throne, her right breast partially exposed in the manner of allegorical representations common to European numismatic tradition. The figure holds a scroll or scepter in her right hand, rendered with fine sculptural detail in the copper-nickel center. A large stylized numeral '1' dominates the right portion of the field, overlapping the bimetallic boundary into the brass outer ring. Twelve five-pointed stars arranged in a circular pattern adorn the brass ring, referencing the European Union motif. The legend 'SPECIMEN' appears in an oval cartouche at the base of the center, with the Euro symbol visible in the lower field of the outer ring. |
