| Obverse description | The obverse is divided vertically into two distinct fields. The left half features the Romanian national coat of arms — a quartered shield with regional emblems, surmounted by a crown — set within a recessed rectangular frame, with the country name ROMANIA above and the denomination 10 LEI below in bold relief. The right half is dominated by an ornate, densely interlaced pattern of stylised Cyrillic letterforms rendered in high relief, evoking the decorative typography of early printed manuscripts. Below this typographic design, the commemorative legend reads 500 DE ANI DE TIPAR PE TERITORIUL ROMANESC and the year 2008. |
