Interesting fact
The Pattern 100 Lei - Carol I (Pattern Strike) 1906 is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was minted as a pattern coin, meaning it was created as a test or sample coin to evaluate the design and production process, and only a limited number of coins were produced. As a result, it is highly sought after by collectors and can fetch a high price at auction.
