Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Bani coin was designed by the Romanian sculptor and engraver, Dimitrie Paciureanu, and it features a portrait of King Carol I on the obverse side, while the reverse side depicts the Romanian coat of arms. The coin was minted in 1905 as a pattern coin, which means it was not intended for circulation but rather as a trial or sample coin. It is made of gold and weighs 5.91 grams, making it a unique and valuable collector's item for numismatists.
