250 Marka Princess Diana

Bosnia issued this coin just months after Diana's death in August 1997, capitalizing on the global wave of memorial merchandise that flooded markets across dozens of countries. The Central Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina was not alone — nearly every minor mint and issuing authority with access to a commemorative program produced Diana pieces in 1997–98 — but the Bosnian issue carries an awkward political dimension: the country was barely two years out of the Dayton Agreement when this was struck, its institutions still largely administered under international supervision.

Mintage figures for this type are poorly documented, which is typical of Bosnian commemorative issues from this transitional period.
