| Obverse description | The obverse is executed in reddish-brown on a light ground, with an elaborate symmetrical border of ornate arabesque and foliate scrollwork enclosing the central text field. The Montenegrin state coat of arms — a double-headed eagle — appears in a vignette at upper left, flanked by decorative vertical panels with interlaced strapwork. The central text in Cyrillic announces the denomination 'ДВАДЕСЕТ ПЕРПЕРА' in large bold letterpress, with manuscript-style signatures of the President of the Main State Control and the Minister of Finance below, and the serial number and series letter printed in the lower margin. |
