| Opschrift voorzijde | + SI M PETRI ? WOIWO (Translation: SI(gnata) M(oneta) PETRI ? WOIWO(dae) = official coin of Voivode (Lord) Petru (Peter). The `?` may represent a daisy. `Muşat`, the name of the lord (Petru II Muşat), inherited from his mother `Muşata` means daisy in the local dialect.) |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | A heraldic shield, divided per pale (vertically split), occupies the central field: the dexter (left) half bears three horizontal bars, while the sinister (right) half displays seven fleurs-de-lis arranged in rows. Above the shield, a single fleurs-de-lis serves as a crest or terminal ornament. The composition represents the early coat of arms of the Principality of Moldavia and reflects strong Central European heraldic influences. A circular Latin legend surrounds the device along the coin's periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Petru II Mușat consolidated Moldavian political independence from Polish and Hungarian suzerainty claims during his reign, and the introduction of a silver groschen-type coinage was central to that effort — giving the principality an instrument of internal trade that didn't depend on foreign mintage. The Moldavian groschen derives directly from the Bohemian groschen tradition, filtered through Polish intermediaries, reflecting the commercial networks Petru was actively courting.
The R2 rarity rating in Kopicki places this piece among survivors rather than common finds. Moldavian silver of this period circulated hard in a region that saw constant movement of merchants, armies, and tribute payments along the Siret and Prut valleys.
