| Obverse description | The flag emblem of Bosnia and Herzegovina occupies the central field, depicting a large yellow right triangle against a blue background with a diagonal row of nine white five-pointed stars running from the upper left to the lower right, all enclosed within a double-ring border. The date appears within the lower portion of the central device. A bilingual legend encircles the design along the rim, reading 'BOSNA I HERCEGOVINA' in Latin script at the top and 'БОСНА И ХЕРЦЕГОВИНА' in Cyrillic script at the bottom, separated by decorative arrow-shaped dividers at either side. |

| Additional information |
Bosnia and Herzegovina introduced its convertible mark currency in 1998 under the terms of the Dayton Agreement, with the exchange rate hard-pegged to the Deutsche Mark — and later, automatically to the euro at the fixed DEM/EUR conversion rate. The currency was designed in part to function as a unifying instrument across the two entities of the postwar state, administered through a currency board that legally cannot conduct discretionary monetary policy.
The currency board structure means no coins of this series were ever minted to manage economic cycles — only to meet transactional demand, which keeps mintage decisions unusually straightforward for a modern issue.
