Interesting fact

The 1 Dinar coin from Wallachia, minted during the reign of Radu I (1377-1383), features a unique design element - a stylized representation of the Wallachian coat of arms, which includes a shield with three rows of five pelicans each, symbolizing the three provinces of Wallachia and the five senses of the human body. This design was meant to signify the unity and strength of the Wallachian people.
