Additional information

Radu I and Vladislav I briefly shared rule over Wallachia in the late 1370s, a co-regency arrangement that left almost no documentary trace beyond a handful of coin types. This dinar is among the primary physical evidence that the joint rule existed at all — numismatic proof filling a gap that chronicle sources leave nearly empty.
