| Obverse description | Central device features a vertically divided heraldic shield, per pale. The dexter (left) field bears a crescent open to the left surmounted by a six-pointed star, while the sinister (right) field displays three horizontal bars in tenné on argent — heraldic elements associated with the Wallachian princely arms. A Cyrillic legend surrounds the shield, reading the name and title of Vladislav II. |
