Interesting fact
The 10 Lei (Passport) 2012 coin from Romania is a unique coin that was issued to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the establishment of the Romanian Principality. The coin features an image of the Romanian coat of arms on one side and a portrait of Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza on the other. What makes this coin particularly interesting is that it was minted using a special technique called "smartminting," which allows for the creation of coins with a higher level of detail and relief than traditional minting methods. This results in a coin that not only looks impressive but also feels substantial and weighty in the hand, making it a truly special collector's item.
