Interesting fact

The 1996 Romanian 100 Lei coin commemorating the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) features a unique design that was created by a 12-year-old girl named Alexandra Ionescu. She won a nationwide competition organized by the Romanian National Bank for the design of the coin, which was aimed at raising awareness about the importance of children's rights and the work of UNICEF. The coin's design features a stylized image of a child holding a flower, surrounded by the inscription "UNICEF - For the Children of the World." This coin is not only a beautiful collector's item but also a symbol of the importance of empowering children and supporting their well-being.
