Flanking the portrait in the lower field are decorative foliate sprays. The legend 'Diana · Princess of Wales' curves along the upper periphery, with the dates '1961' and '1997' flanking the portrait on the left and right respectively. The denomination '50 MARAKA' is boldly inscribed in the lower exergual area beneath the portrait.

Additional information

Issued in the immediate aftermath of Diana's death in August 1997, this coin belongs to the wave of memorial issues that flooded global markets through 1997–1998, many produced by small or recovering nations whose mints had little connection to Diana herself. Bosnia and Herzegovina was still operating under the Dayton Agreement framework, its central bank only established in 1997 — making this among the earliest sovereign issues the institution produced.
