| Reverse description | Central field depicts a bird — identified as a pelican or eagle — standing atop a rocky mound, rendered in a stylized medieval manner with detailed feather hatching on the wings and body. A small cross pattée appears in the upper field beside the bird's head. The figure occupies the majority of the flan within a beaded inner circle. A peripheral Cyrillic legend in medieval script encircles the design, recording the name of co-ruler Radu. The overall execution reflects the hammered, artisanal character typical of early Wallachian medieval coinage. |

| Additional information |
Vladislav I and Radu I issued coinage jointly during a period when Wallachian succession operated less as a clean transfer and more as a negotiated co-rule — Radu serving as a designated heir with recognized minting authority before his brother's death. This type reflects that arrangement directly. The MBR Type Ia classification places it among the earliest die groupings in the joint series, distinguished from later types by subtle differences in die execution that specialists use to sequence the emission.
