Wencezlaus IV was using title of Wencezlaus III, as Luxembourg dynasty did not recognized Přemyslid Wencezlaus III as a king.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Wencezlaus IV (Prague) ND (1378-1419) coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it features a unique design element - a stylized representation of the Bohemian lion on the reverse side, which was a symbol of the kingdom's coat of arms. This design was used during the reign of Wenceslaus IV, who was the King of Bohemia from 1378 to 1419. The use of the lion symbol on the coin was a way to showcase the kingdom's rich history and cultural heritage.
