Additional information

Alexander I ruled Moldavia for over three decades, navigating constant pressure from Poland, Hungary, and the Ottoman frontier simultaneously. His coinage was prolific by Moldavian standards, and the Type IV groschen reflects the administrative consolidation of his later reign, when the principality briefly held enough stability to regularize its mint output. The series shows marked variation in die workmanship, likely the result of multiple engravers working without strict oversight.
