Interesting fact
The 1 Lek coin from Albania, which was minted in 1996, features an image of the Albanian flag on one side and the number "1" on the other. The coin is made of bronze and weighs 3 grams. What's interesting about this coin is that it was one of the first coins to be introduced after Albania transitioned from a communist government to a democratic one in the early 1990s. The design of the coin reflects the country's newfound independence and its commitment to creating a new currency that would symbolize its transition to a market-based economy.
