Interesting fact
The 20 Lei coin from Romania was designed by the artist Ioan Bolborea, who also designed several other coins for the country. The coin features an image of a dolphin on one side and the Romanian coat of arms on the other. The dolphin was chosen as a symbol of the Black Sea, which borders Romania to the east.
