| Obverse description | Central field displays the crowned shield of Moldavia, quartered with the auroch's head and traditional Moldavian heraldic charges, rendered in a crude hammered style typical of mid-16th century Eastern European coinage. The shield is set within a beaded inner circle. A circular Latin legend surrounds the design, reading the ruler's name and title. The date 1558 appears as part of the outer legend. The overall execution reflects the irregular flan characteristic of hand-struck dinars of this period. |
