Interesting fact

The 1 Ducat coin from Wallachia, minted during the reign of Vladislav I (Type I) between 1364-1377, features an interesting fact. Despite being made of silver, the coin weighs only 1.04 grams, which is relatively light compared to other coins of similar value and material. This could be attributed to the coin's small size, which measures approximately 17-18 mm in diameter. This unique combination of a silver coin with a relatively low weight and small size makes the 1 Ducat - Vladislav I (Type I) ND (1364-1377) from Wallachia an interesting and valuable collector's item for numismatists.
