Comment
The Tale of Igor's Campaign is an anonymous epic poem written in the Old East Slavic language. The title is occasionally translated as The Song of Igor's Campaign, The Lay of Igor's Campaign, The Lay of the Host of Igor, and The Lay of the Warfare Waged by Igor. The poem gives an account of a failed raid of Igor Svyatoslavich (d. 1202) against the Polovtsians of the Don River region. While some have disputed the authenticity of the poem, the current scholarly consensus is that the poem is authentic and dates to the medieval period (late 12th century).Interesting fact
The 150 Roubles (Tale of Igor's Campaign) coin from the Soviet Union (Russia) made of Platinum (.999) weighing 15.55g is interesting because it features a unique design that showcases the country's rich history and culture. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of Prince Igor, a prominent figure in Russian history, while the reverse side depicts a scene from the Tale of Igor's Campaign, a medieval epic poem that tells the story of Prince Igor's military campaign against the Mongols. The coin's platinum composition and limited mintage make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
