Interesting fact

The 1 Denga coin from the Russian Empire, issued during the reign of Aleksandr I (1804-1810), features an interesting design element. On the obverse side of the coin, there is an image of the emperor, while the reverse side features the Imperial eagle, a symbol of the Russian Empire. This design was used on many coins during this period, but the 1 Denga coin is unique in that it has a small hole in the center of the eagle's wing, which was added to prevent counterfeiting. This feature makes the coin easily identifiable and adds to its historical significance.
