| Obverse description | The right half carries an intaglio portrait of Avram Iancu (1824–1872), the Transylvanian revolutionary leader, in traditional dress and fur cap, set against a vignette of a wooden church amid a mountain landscape. To the left, the Romanian coat of arms appears within a central guilloche band flanked by ornate rosette borders, with the issuer's monogram at upper left and the denomination numeral 5000 in a lathe-work cartouche at lower left. Two facsimile signatures — Governor and Central Cashier — are printed vertically along the dividing band. |
