Obverse description The Serbian state coat of arms occupies the central field, featuring a crowned shield bearing the double-headed eagle with a smaller inescutcheon displaying the Serbian cross and four firesteels. The shield is surmounted by a royal crown with a curved lower base, characteristic of the first coat of arms type, and flanked by elaborate ermine-lined mantling. The bilingual legend arcs around the upper periphery in Cyrillic and Latin script reading РЕПУБЛИКА СРБИЈА - REPUBLIKA SRBIJA, while the issuing authority abbreviation НБС - NBS appears at the base, separated by bullet points.

Reverse description A detailed architectural rendering of Studenica Monastery, the celebrated 12th-century Serbian Orthodox royal monastery, dominates the central field, depicted in a three-quarter perspective that highlights its multiple domed churches, arched facades, and distinctive Romanesque-Byzantine stone construction. The large numeral 10 appears prominently to the left of the monastery complex, with the bilingual denomination legend ДИНАРА • DINARA arcing along the upper periphery in Cyrillic and Latin script. The name СТУДЕНИЦА is inscribed vertically along the left inner field, and the year of issue appears in the exergue at the base.

Additional information

Issued the year Serbia and Montenegro formally dissolved their shared central banking arrangements, this coin predates Serbian independence by one year — the National Bank of Serbia was operating under that name from 2003, but the political separation from Montenegro wasn't completed until June 2006. The "1st coat of arms" designation distinguishes it from the redesigned type introduced after 2010, when heraldic elements on the reverse were revised following a Constitutional Court ruling on the proper form of the Serbian state arms.
