| Obverse description | Central vignette of King Mihai I (Regele Mihai I) in military uniform, set within an oval frame surrounded by intricate guilloche lacework extending to both lateral margins. The denomination "20 LEI" appears in the upper left and upper right corners, with the bank title "BANCA NAȚIONALĂ A ROMÂNIEI" across the top. A scroll cartouche below the portrait bears the royal name, with two facsimile signature fields at lower left (Guvernator) and lower right (Casier), and a non-circulation notice along the bottom edge. |

Banca Națională a României has produced artistic reproduction notes before — the centenary series issued around 2018 used a similar format to commemorate historical designs without assigning legal tender status. This 2025 paper reproduction of the 20 Lei follows that tradition of officially sanctioned collector facsimiles, distinct from the polymer notes currently in circulation.
Mihai Cosmin Dinu has worked on several BNR numismatic projects. Paper substrate rather than polymer marks this explicitly as a reproduction, not a circulating issue.
