Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the union of Bessarabia with Romania, which took place in 1918. Bessarabia, which is now part of Moldova and Ukraine, was annexed by Romania in 1918 and remained under Romanian rule until 1940. The coin's design features an image of the map of Bessarabia and the Romanian coat of arms, symbolizing the reunification of the two regions.
