Comment
Ruler: Aleksandr I (1801-1825).Interesting fact
The Denga - Aleksandr I (Novodel) 1810 coin from the Russian Empire is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change in Russia. The coin was minted in 1810, just a year after the death of Tsar Alexander I, who had ruled Russia for over 25 years. This period saw significant political and social upheaval, including the rise of the Decembrist movement, which sought to reform the Russian government and establish a constitutional monarchy. The coin's design, which features an image of Alexander I on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other, reflects the turmoil of the time, as it was created during a period of transition and change in the Russian Empire.
