| Obverse description | The obverse is dominated by a central oval guilloche frame enclosing the denomination numeral '2' on each side and the Cyrillic inscription ДВА ПЕРПЕРА in bold letterpress. Above the oval, a decorative vignette with a balance scale flanked by ornamental scrollwork bears the legend КРАЉЕВИНА ЦРНАГОРА at upper left and right. The main text in Cyrillic informs the bearer that the Main State Treasury will pay the sum of Two Perpera, with the date Cetinje, 25 July 1914 inscribed at the foot within a decorative panel. Two signature lines for the President of the Main State Comptroller and the Minister of Finance appear in the lower central portion, accompanied by serial number and series designators in the corners. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries an all-over letterpress underprint of repeating text КРАЉЕВИНАЦРНАГОРА in Cyrillic across the entire field, forming a security background. At centre, the royal coat of arms of Montenegro is printed as a vignette above the bold Cyrillic inscription ДВА ПЕРПЕРА, with the heading КРАЉЕВИНА ПRNАГОРА above. Below the denomination, a legal authorization clause references the law of 25 July 1914, and a warning against counterfeiting cites articles §§ 145 and 146 of the criminal code. Denomination numerals '2' appear in each corner. |
