Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Ban - Vladislav I (Type Ia) ND (1364-1377) from Wallachia (Moldavia and Wallachia) made of Silver is that it features a unique blend of Eastern and Western influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a seated king, likely Vladislav I, surrounded by a traditional Romanian motif of interlocking circles, while the reverse side features a cross and a crescent moon, symbols of the Christian and Islamic faiths, respectively. This blending of cultural elements reflects the diverse religious and artistic influences present in Wallachia during the 14th century.
