Comment
Iliescu 1956 IA type 2, 6th series VIIInteresting fact
The 1 Ducat coin from Wallachia, minted during the reign of Vladislav I (Type I) between 1364 and 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 may indicate that the coin was intended for everyday use and circulation, rather than being a commemorative or collectible item.
