| Additional information |
Issued to mark the 136th anniversary of the National Bank of Romania's founding in 1880, this piece is part of a broader commemorative program the BNR has run since the 1990s honoring its own institutional history. The bank's early governors navigated successive monetary upheavals — the transition off bimetallic standards, WWI occupation currency, and interwar stabilization — making the governorship a post of genuine consequence rather than ceremonial weight.
Mintages on BNR commemorative gold issues of this type are typically kept well under 500 pieces.
