Lazar Hrebeljanović died at Kosovo Polje in June 1389, and coins struck in his name continued to be issued posthumously under his widow Milica, who governed as regent for their son Stefan. This piece almost certainly falls within that regency window rather than Lazar's own lifetime — the 1389 start date reflects the battle, not a minting event. The Jovanović classification places it among the later issues of the series, where die workmanship tends to deteriorate noticeably as the Serbian state buckled under Ottoman pressure.
