Catalog description

This brass-plated steel 20 lei belongs to Romania’s transitional third-leu issues of 1991–2003. Date-shape varieties and numerous proofs show the importance of close die study in modern coinage. The coin records inflation and the gradual move toward more specialized mint production. Its purchasing power changed rapidly and depended on year and locality.
