| Additional information |
Issued to mark the 150th anniversary of Romania's first leu, introduced in 1867 under Prince Carol I when the country adopted a bimetallic system aligned with the Latin Monetary Union. Romania never formally joined the Union but structured its currency to be compatible — a deliberate political signal of Western orientation during a period when the young state was navigating between Ottoman suzerainty and European ambition.
