WALLACHIA -- Dan IIWALLACHIA -- Dan II (1422-1431) Billon Denier. Obv.: Ruler standing Rev.: Cross in crowned shield; letter to right.
*NOTE: This coin, and coins like it, were attributed by the Hungarian numismatist Dr. Rethy Laszlo to Nikolaus Redwitz, ban of Severin during 1429-1435, who was also count of the royal mint in Hermannstadt. The oppinion of Dr. Rethy Laszlo was that Mircea the Elder struck in the Severin mint his coins bearing the ruler's portrait on obverse and Nikolaus Redwitz used the same design, but using the Teutonic crest instead of the Wallachian eagle.
New researches carried by Romanian numismatists led to another oppinion. They proved that the coins were minted by Dan II in the Severin mint.
