Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 100 Lekë (Durazzo; Trial) 1986 from Albania made of Gold (.900) weighing 6.45 g is that it was never officially released into circulation. It was minted as a trial coin, and only a small number of samples were produced, making it a rare and valuable collector's item.
