Interesting fact

The Pattern 1 Leu coin was designed by Romanian artist and engraver, Ioan Bolborea, and features a unique pattern that showcases a combination of traditional Romanian motifs and modern design elements. The coin's obverse side features the Romanian coat of arms, while the reverse side features a stylized image of a dolphin, which symbolizes the Black Sea, along with the coin's denomination and year of issue. The use of gold plating on the brass coin gives it a distinctive and eye-catching appearance that sets it apart from other coins in the series.
