| Additional information |
Macedonia's silver Virgo issue belongs to a zodiac series that the National Bank launched as a collector program in the 2000s, with each sign struck in limited quantities for the numismatic market rather than circulation. The KM#40 designation places this piece within a well-documented run, though individual mintage figures for the zodiac subseries are rarely publicized by the issuing authority.
The series was produced during a politically delicate period for Macedonia, when the country was still operating under the provisional UN designation "Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia" in international forums — a dispute with Greece over the name that would not be formally resolved until the 2019 Prespa Agreement.
