Iliescu 1956 IA type 3a, series I; Dincă#1.10cInteresting fact
The 1 Ducat coin from Wallachia (Moldavia and Wallachia) minted during the reign of Vladislav I (Type IIa) between 1364-1377 is an interesting piece of history. One fascinating fact about this coin is that it was used as a means of payment for the Romanian principalities, and it was also used in trade with other neighboring countries. It's a great example of how currency can bridge different cultures and economies.
