Iliescu 1956 IA type 1a, series II; Dincă#1.15Interesting fact
The 1 Ducat coin from Wallachia (Moldavia and Wallachia) minted during the reign of Vladislav I (Type IIIa) 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 Genoese merchants who traded with the Wallachians during that time. This highlights the coin's significance in facilitating economic exchange between different regions and cultures.
