1 Gross - Vladislaus II

Vladislaus II spent much of his reign fighting off rival claimants and managing the fractious Bohemian estates, leaving royal finances in chronic disorder. The Prague groschen tradition he inherited dated to Wenceslaus II's monetary reform of 1300, and by the late fifteenth century the type had suffered decades of debasement under his Hussite-era predecessors. Vladislaus made no dramatic restoration — the coinage continued its gradual decline in silver fineness throughout his reign.

He was simultaneously King of Hungary from 1490, a dual crown that stretched administrative resources thin across two kingdoms.
