Four segments can be distinguished in the history of the minting of Ladislaus Jagiello: Lithuanian minting, crown minting, provincial (Ruthenian) minting and city minting (Poznan and Wschowa). Minted at the end of the 14th century, the denars (money) of Jogaila as ruler of Lithuania are very diverse, both in weight and design (eagle, lion, head of the Virgin Mary, dragon, shield with double cross, rider with spear, Cyrillic inscriptions, Latin inscriptions). Of the crown coins, the Cracow mint issued silver denarii, small quarters (or ternars) and large quarters (or half-pennies). These denominations were devalued during the reign of Wladyslaw Jagiello. For Halich Ruthenia, quarters (similar to the standard of Polish half-pennies) were minted during this period, some of which have the inscription MONETA RVSSIE, while others have the inscription MONETA LEMBVRG. Should the coins of the latter group also be classified as Ruthenian coins, or rather as urban (Lvov) coins? This has not been fully clarified. The urban minting of Wladyslaw Jagiello includes issues of the denarii of Wschowa and Poznan. The former were minted on the Silesian foot (12 denarii per penny), while the latter were minted on the Cracow foot (18 denarii per penny).
