Comments
Very rare coin with Lily, a royal symbol of medieval Serbia and a Christian symbol is on each side of Jesus throne. This is the only example of Despot Stefan holding sword over his lap like earlier examples of king Stefan Dragutin, king Stefan Uros III Decanski, emperor Stefan Dusan, ban Stefan II and ban Tvrtko I.
