Comment

Nihil sine Deo (Nothing without God/'s will/) was the motto of the Romanian Kingdom (1878-1947) while ruled by the Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen dynasty.

Some coins may look Proof, but they are just first issues with unused dies, so their details are very sharp.

Interesting fact

The 10 Bani - Carol I 1867 coin was designed by the Romanian engraver, Ion Georgescu, and it features a portrait of King Carol I on one side and the Romanian coat of arms on the other. The coin was minted in 1867 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Carol I's reign, and it was made of copper, which was a common material for coins at that time. Despite its relatively low value, the coin is now considered a rare collector's item, and it can be found in auctions and online marketplaces for numismatists.
