Commentary

Ce type fut frappé en 1912 et en 1914.
Nikola Ier Petrović-Njegoš(1841-1921) est prince du Monténégro de 1860 à 1910, puis roi du Monténégro de 1910 à 1918. Prenant le parti des Alliés en 1914, il doit fuir son pays envahi par les autrichiens en 1915. Il est déchu à la fin de la guerre, le Montenegro passant sous domination serbe et étant rattaché au Royaume de Yougoslavie.
