The Pattern 10 Bani coin from Romania, minted in 1905, was a trial coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was created as a test piece to experiment with the use of aluminum bronze as a material for coinage, which was a new and innovative approach at the time. As a result, only a small number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors today.
