| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to mark the 70th anniversary of the Patriarchal Cathedral in Bucharest, which was consecrated in 1925 but not completed in its full decorative program until decades later. The Romanian Orthodox Church's relationship with the communist state was uneasy but never fully severed — the Patriarchate survived by degrees of accommodation that remain debated by historians. A gold commemorative honoring this institution in 2006 carried implicit meaning in a country still working through that legacy.
Struck in .999 fine gold at exactly one troy ounce, this is among the more straightforward of BNR's commemorative program — limited mintage, collector-targeted from issue.
