| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field depicts the she-wolf of Roman legend, rendered in high relief in a recumbent posture, nursing the twins Romulus and Remus, an allegorical motif evoking Romania's Latin heritage. The composition occupies the majority of the field, with the animal's body oriented to the left and the infants positioned at the upper right. The country name ROMANIA is inscribed in bold Latin lettering along the lower portion of the field, with the date 1922 directly below, separated by a horizontal ground line beneath the group. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features the large bold denomination numeral '5' prominently in the left field, surmounted by the Romanian royal crown rendered in fine detail at the upper centre, with a cross finial at its apex. The word 'LEI' appears in large capital letters to the right of the numeral, completing the denomination. A decorative spray of wheat or grain stalks extends along the right side of the field, adding an agricultural motif. The overall design is plain and uncluttered, with no additional legend or border ornamentation. |

Romania's postwar coinage reform took years to materialize. Ferdinand I was crowned King of Greater Romania in 1922 at Alba Iulia in a ceremony deliberately staged to echo medieval precedent, and the new unified state needed coinage to match its expanded borders. Pattern strikes in nickel from this year represent exploratory work that was ultimately set aside — Romania's circulating 5 Lei coinage of the period went through multiple compositional experiments before the brass and later cupronickel issues were settled upon.
Pn194 is one of several 1922 pattern references, suggesting the mint tested more than one approach simultaneously.
