Additional information

Macedonia's admission to the United Nations in 1993 came under the provisional designation "Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia" — a compromise forced by Greek objection to the name "Macedonia," which Athens argued implied territorial claims on its northern province. This coin was struck three years after that admission, during a period when the naming dispute still blocked Macedonian membership in numerous international bodies.

The KM#8 issue belongs to a small series of gold commemoratives the National Bank released in the mid-1990s as the young state worked to establish monetary credibility following independence from Yugoslavia in 1991.
