Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 25 Bani - Ferdinand I (Pattern Strike) 1921 from Romania made of Nickel is that it was designed by the Romanian sculptor and engraver, Costin Petrescu. Petrescu was a prominent artist in Romania during the early 20th century, and his work can be found on many Romanian coins and banknotes from that era. The coin's design features a portrait of King Ferdinand I on one side and the Romanian coat of arms on the other, and it was minted in a limited quantity as a pattern strike, making it a rare and valuable collector's item.
