Interesting fact

The Pattern 100 Lei - FAO (Pattern) 1995 from Romania, made of Gold plated bronze and weighing 21.1g, is a rare and unique coin that was never put into circulation. It was created as a pattern coin, meaning it was produced as a prototype or sample for a potential coin design, but it was ultimately not adopted for use. As a result, only a limited number of these coins were minted, making them highly sought after by collectors.
