| Additional information |
Vladislav I — also known as Vlaicu Vodă — issued these ducats following Wallachia's consolidation of control over the Danube trading routes, a position secured partly through his careful navigation between Hungarian suzerainty and Bulgarian alliances. The designation "Type I" within the MBR sequence reflects meaningful die variation across his reign, and the "var." attribution signals this piece diverges from the primary recorded type — likely in legend spelling, cross terminal form, or shield detail, distinctions that remain incompletely catalogued in the literature.
Vladislav I was the first Wallachian ruler to strike coins in his own name with any regularity.
