| Opis rewersu |
The central field features a portrait bust of Burebista, the great Dacian king, alongside a dynamic battle scene depicting Geto-Dacian warriors in combat with Roman soldiers, rendered in high-relief. The legend 'BUREBISTA' curves along the upper circumference in raised Latin block letters, while the inscription 'REGELE DACILOR' (King of the Dacians) arcs along the lower circumference, completing the design. The composition reflects a historicized artistic style commemorating the ancient Dacian ruler. |

Burebista unified the Dacian tribes in the first century BC and briefly controlled territory stretching from the Black Sea coast into central Europe — an empire that collapsed almost immediately after his assassination around 44 BC, likely the same year Julius Caesar was killed. Moldova's claim to this figure is geopolitical as much as historical, positioning the modern state within a Dacian heritage that Romania has long treated as its own founding narrative.
