Issued by the National Bank of Romania in 2005, this 1 Leu banknote belongs to the post-redenomination series introduced after the currency reform that removed four zeros from the old leu.
The obverse features a portrait of a notable Romanian cultural figure, along with denomination numerals, refined guilloche patterns, and inscriptions in Romanian.
The reverse depicts cultural or architectural motifs representing Romania’s national heritage. Clean layouts and modern design elements complete the banknote.
