| Aanvullende informatie |
Romania's wartime zinc coinage was a direct consequence of the country's alliance with Nazi Germany — base metals replaced nickel and silver as strategic materials were redirected to the war effort. The 20 Lei in zinc was struck across three years of increasingly strained Romanian participation on the Eastern Front, a period that ended with the royal coup of August 1944, when Mihai I dismissed and arrested Ion Antonescu and switched Romania's allegiance to the Allies.
Zinc planchets from this period are notoriously prone to corrosion and lamination, making problem-free survivors harder to locate than mintage figures alone would suggest.
