| Obverse description | The Romanian state arms occupy the central field, depicting a quartered shield supported by a draped female figure to the left and a lion to the right, the whole surmounted by a royal crown and set beneath an ermine-lined mantle. The motto legend NIHIL SINE DEO (Nothing without God) appears along the lower edge of the shield. The country name ROMANIA is inscribed in an arc along the upper periphery in bold serif letters. The design is rendered in high relief with fine detail on the heraldic elements and supporter figures. |

| Reverse description | The denomination and date are displayed in three lines at the centre of the field, reading '1 / BANU / 1867' in bold upright lettering. The central legend is encircled by a wreath composed of laurel branches to the left and oak branches to the right, tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The mint mark, either 'H' for Heaton or 'WATT & CO.' for James Watt & Co., appears below the wreath. The coin's toothed border frames the composition neatly, consistent with the milled technique of the Birmingham mints. |
