| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays the denomination numeral 1 above the inscription LEU, with the date 1870 below, all within an open wreath composed of a laurel branch on the left and an oak branch on the right, tied at the base. The mint mark C appears at the very bottom of the field, below the wreath binding. A dentilated border frames the entire design, consistent with the obverse. The composition is bold and symmetrical, conforming to the Latin Monetary Union aesthetic prevalent in Romanian coinage of the period. |

Romania's 1870 leu was struck just three years after the Latin Monetary Union established the franc-based weight and fineness standards that this coin directly mirrors. Carol I, a Hohenzollern prince imported to stabilize a chronically ungovernable principality, used the new coinage partly as a sovereignty signal — the Paris Mint had struck the earliest Romanian issues, and domestic production at this scale was still finding its footing. KM#6 pieces from 1870 are notably scarcer than the 1873 and 1874 dates in the series, a reflection of the mint's limited early output rather than any single political event.
