Interesting fact
The 10 Bani coin from Romania, minted in 1954, features a unique design element - a star - which was added to the coin's obverse (front side) to symbolize the country's commitment to socialism and the unity of the working class. This design feature was a departure from the traditional coat of arms that had been used on previous Romanian coins, and it reflected the country's shift towards a more socialist ideology during the early years of the Cold War.
