Interesting fact
The Pattern 5 Lei coin was designed by Romanian artist and engraver, Ioan Bolborea, and it features a unique pattern on its reverse side. The pattern depicts a stylized representation of the Romanian coat of arms, which includes an eagle, a lion, and a bull, all surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was specifically created for the 5 Lei coin and has not been used on any other Romanian coins.
