100 Lei

Brief Description

The coin features the Coat of Arms of Romania on the obverse, surrounded by the year '1993'. The reverse side typically shows the denomination. This image only displays the obverse.

Historical Significance

This coin was issued during a period of significant economic transition in Romania following the fall of communism in 1989. The 'Lei' underwent several revaluations due to high inflation during the 1990s, making these earlier issues less valuable but historically representative of Romania's post-communist economic challenges and reforms.

Estimated Value

In circulated condition, typically very low, often less than $1 USD. Higher grades or uncirculated coins might fetch slightly more, but generally not considered rare or highly valuable.

Care Instructions

Handle the coin by its edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin. Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a non-PVC coin holder or album. Avoid cleaning the coin, as this can damage its surface and reduce its numismatic value.
