| Additional information |
Mihai Marinciuc served as the first Governor of the National Bank of Moldova following its establishment in 1991, steering monetary policy through the introduction of the Moldovan leu in 1993 — one of the more orderly currency transitions among the former Soviet republics. This issue is part of Moldova's ongoing commemorative series honoring figures central to the country's post-independence financial architecture.
