The pictures of this coin are present on Romanian coins through the kind permission of Mr. Lucian Solcan.

According to the Bible of Romanian numismatics, Monede şi bancnote româneşti by George Buzdugan, Octavian Luchian and Constantin Oprescu (1976), these old coins are classified as a type I b gros. This classification was made by the renown Romanian numismatist Mr. Octavian Iliescu.

The I b category differs from the I a category (presented on the previous page) by the inverted positions of the crescent and rose on the urus snout sides. The type I differs from type II mainly by the design inside the shield and by the shape of letter A (at type II letter A has three legs instead of two).
