This coin is a 1 litas denomination issued by the Republic of Lithuania in AD 1925.

The obverse side features the coat of arms of Lithuania, surrounded by the Lithuanian inscription “LIETUVOS RESPUBLIKA,” meaning “Republic of Lithuania,” with the year of minting, “1925,” at the bottom. The reverse side bears the denomination “1 vienas litas” in Lithuanian, decorated by an oak branch.

Coat Of Arms Of Lithuania:
The coat of arms of Lithuania features an armed knight on horseback holding a silver sword aloft, also known as the “Vytis.” This image first appeared in AD 1366 when rulers of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania began using a depiction of themselves on horseback as a seal.

This coin was minted during the period of the Republic of Lithuania from AD 1918 to AD 1940, when the litas served as the country’s official currency.

In AD 1925, Lithuania introduced silver coins in denominations of 1 litas, 2 litu, and 5 litai. These coins continued to be used until AD 1941, when Lithuania was annexed by the Soviet Union. At that time, the litas was replaced by the rouble, and its circulation was prohibited.
