Reverse description The crowned and mantled coat of arms of the Principality of Montenegro occupies the central field, displaying a double-headed eagle beneath a royal crown with elaborate heraldic mantling draped to either side. The shield on the eagle's breast bears the Montenegrin lion. Flanking the arms are sprigs of oak to the left and olive to the right, symbolising strength and peace. The denomination numeral '5' appears below the shield, with 'ПЕРПЕРА' in a recessed cartouche beneath it, and the date '1909' in the lower exergue. The Cyrillic legend 'КЊАЖЕВИНА ЦРНА ГОРА' arcs around the upper periphery within a beaded border.
