Comment
Iliescu 1956 IA type 2, 3rd seriesInteresting 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 was not minted in a traditional round shape. Instead, it was minted in the shape of a hexagon, which was a unique design choice for coins during that time period. This distinctive shape makes the coin stand out among other coins from the same era and adds to its historical significance.
