Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique countermark, which is a small stamp or marking that was added to the coin after it was minted. The countermark on this coin is a small cross, which was added to the coin by the mint master to indicate that it was issued by the Principality of Kyiv. This countermark is a distinctive feature of coins issued by the Principality of Kyiv during this time period, and it helps to distinguish them from other coins that were issued by different regions or rulers.
