The modern coinage of Lithuania was introduced in 1993. It is composed of coins denominated in ''centas'' (plurals ''centai'' and ''centų'') and ''litas'' (plurals ''litai'' and ''litų'') ==1, 2, and 5 centai== Image:1 centas (1991).jpg|1 centas - 1991 release Image:2 centai (1991).jpg|2 centai - 1991 release Image:5 centai (1991).jpg|5 centai - 1991 release Image:1, 2, and 5 centai (1991).jpg|Size comparison These coins are made from aluminium and therefore are white. The coins' edge is plain. They were designed by sculptor Petras Garška. These coins are the first permanent coins released after the restoration of independence in 1990. Unlike other coins they bear the same date - 1991 - no matter the year of actual production. The design has not changed even though they bear an old version of the Coat of Arms (the horse's tail looks down instead of up, the knight is leaning forward, and other details). People usually refer to these coins as "balti centai" (white cents) which has a slightly negative connotation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Coins of the Lithuanian litas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
