Interesting fact
The Pattern 25 Bani coin was designed by the Romanian artist and engraver, Ion Ionescu-Dalles. He was a prominent figure in Romanian numismatics and designed many coins and banknotes for Romania during the 20th century. The coin features a star on the obverse side, which was a common motif in Romanian coinage during the communist era. The star symbolized the unity and solidarity of the Romanian people.
