| Additional information |
Gjorče Petrov was a Macedonian revolutionary and a founding member of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization, killed in 1903 — the centenary of which this coin directly commemorates. The 1903 Ilinden Uprising he helped organize was crushed within months, but it became the founding myth of modern Macedonian national identity, invoked repeatedly through the socialist Yugoslav period and again after independence in 1991.
Macedonia's gold commemorative program of this era was modest in scope, making individual issues from the series genuinely low-mintage pieces.
