| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features the quartered arms of the United Principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia, depicting a rampant eagle and an aurochs head in the respective quarters, surmounted by a princely crown. The shield is flanked by supportive mantling. The surrounding legend reads ALEXANDRU JOAN D. MOLD. SI WALACH., referencing Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza as ruler of both Moldavia and Wallachia. The design is executed in a refined neoclassical style consistent with the work of the Paris Mint engraver Albert Désiré Barre. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The 1860 pattern coinage of the United Principalities was struck in Paris at a moment of acute political uncertainty — Alexandru Ioan Cuza had united the two principalities under his rule only the year before, and the Romanian monetary system had yet to be formally established. These patterns were exploratory proposals for a national coinage that never materialized under Cuza's government, the principalities remaining dependent on a chaotic mixture of Ottoman, Austrian, and Russian coins in daily commerce.
The "Romani" denomination itself was abandoned before any circulation issue was authorized.
