1 Ban

The obverse side of the coin features the Romanian coat of arms in the center, encircled by the text "ROMANIA" at the top and the year "2011" at the bottom. There are stars distributed around the rim.

The 1 Ban coin is part of the modern Romanian leu currency system introduced after the redenomination in 2005. It represents the smallest denomination in circulation, reflecting Romania's economic stability and integration into the European financial system during that period. While not historically significant in terms of major events depicted, it signifies the ongoing monetary policies and national identity of Romania in the 21st century.

Very low, typically face value or slightly above (e.g., $0.01 - $0.25 USD) for uncirculated specimens, as it's a common modern circulating coin.

Handle the coin by its edges to prevent transferring oils from your skin. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Use coin flips made from inert materials (like Mylar) or non-PVC coin holders. Avoid cleaning the coin, as this can devalue it, especially if not done professionally.
