Popis: The 20-dinar golden coin bearing the image of King Aleksandar I Karađorđević was minted at the Paris Mint in 1927. Although it was declared as legal tender, it was not released into circulation in the usual way and it could only be purchased at the National Bank at the value of other golden coins. According to a report from the National Bank from 1926 and many catalogues, one million golden coins were minted, as was planned, but a catalogue by D. Jovanović from 1970 states that significantly fewer coins were minted. The coins are imprinted with the year 1925; their structure is 900% gold and 100% copper, and each weighs 6.45161g, with a diameter of 21mm. They were withdrawn from circulation as of 28.6.1931.
