Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 50 Para coin from Serbia featuring Milan Obrenović IV is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in the country. The coin was issued in 1879, just a year after the Serbian-Ottoman War, which saw Serbia gain its independence from the Ottoman Empire. This coin was part of a new currency system introduced by the Serbian government to replace the previous Ottoman-era currency. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin remains a valuable piece of Serbian history and a testament to the country's resilience and determination to establish its own identity.
