Interesting fact
The coin features a portrait of King Mihai I, who was the last king of Romania and ruled from 1927 until the abolition of the monarchy in 1947. Despite his association with the coin, King Mihai I was actually known for his opposition to the communist regime that took power in Romania after World War II. He was forced to abdicate and leave the country in 1947, and spent the rest of his life in exile.
