Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Vladislav I (Type IIIb2) ND (1364-1377) coin from Wallachia (Moldavia and Wallachia) is that it features a unique blend of Christian and pagan imagery. The obverse side of the coin depicts a cross, which symbolizes the Christian faith, while the reverse side features an image of a dragon, which was a symbol of the ancient Dacian culture that once inhabited the region. This blending of religious and cultural symbols reflects the complex history and cultural influences of the region during the time period in which the coin was minted.
