The motto legend appears in Cyrillic along the upper arc and in Latin script along the lower arc, separated by the small mint mark 'ESSAI' inscribed in the lower central field beneath the arms. A beaded border surrounds the entire design. |

| Additional information |
Peter II was deposed in absentia when the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia was proclaimed in November 1945, ending his long wartime exile in London. He died in Denver, Colorado in 1970, never having returned to Yugoslavia. This piece was struck in 1967 during that exile period — not by any state authority, but almost certainly as a private or émigré issue, a category that proliferated among displaced royal governments and royalist diaspora communities throughout the Cold War decades.
"Franklinum" is not a recognized metallurgical designation in standard numismatic literature, which raises immediate questions about the issuing body's credibility and the coin's intended purpose.
