Iliescu 1956 IA type 1a, series II; Dincă#1.17Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Vladislav I (Type IIIa) ND (1364-1377) coin from Wallachia (Moldavia and Wallachia) is that it features an image of a dragon on one side, which was a symbol of the Wallachian prince Vladislav I. The dragon was believed to represent the prince's power and strength, and it was a common motif in medieval Wallachian art and architecture.
