The crowned Romanian royal arms appear in the right field, while the curved legend ROMANIA arcs along the left and upper border, and the date 1939 is inscribed in the exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Carol II commissioned this piece in 1939 as a presentation gift rather than a circulating coin — a tool of royal diplomacy distributed to foreign dignitaries and senior military officers. The 12-ducat denomination itself has no organic place in Romanian monetary history; it was invented for the occasion, anchored to an archaic unit purely for prestige weight.
Carol abdicated under duress in September 1940, forced out by Ion Antonescu and the Iron Guard. Pieces distributed after that date carried the portrait of a king who no longer reigned.
