Obverse descriptionPortrait of Queen Maria Karađorđević (Queen of Yugoslavia 1922-1934), born as Princess Maria of Romania, second doughter of Ferdinand I King of Romania. Shown with a royal diadem/tiara on her head, wearing a purple dress with a red ribbon over her right shoulder and a pearl necklace around her neck. Watermark in the center, crown above it. An eagle in flight is depicted on the right side and a pale view of a coniferous forest in the background. The Imperial eagle symbolizes the highest power, the supreme authority. Ears of wheat and corn, grapevine and other fruits are shown as symbols of abundance.
Reverse descriptionTo the left and right are allegorical representations of two young women, both in white dresses with a white veil on their heads. The woman on the left holds a sheaf of wheat and a sickle. The woman on the right holds a sword and a shield with the coat of arms of Yugoslavia. Both are holding twigs with the other hand, the left one olive and the right one laurel. The symbolism is clear: agriculture and work are the guarantors of security that establish, maintain and protect peace and justice. In the middle below the watermark is a double-headed white eagle with spread wings with the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in a shield on the chest. Grapevine, apples and flowers are shown.
