Comment
Boris of Tver or Boris the Great (ca. 1399–February 10, 1461) was a prince of Tver.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denga coin is that it was issued during the reign of Boris Alexandrovich, who was the Grand Prince of Tver from 1425 to 1461. This was a time of great political and economic change in the region, as the Grand Principality of Tver was one of several powerful states that emerged from the breakup of the Mongol Empire in the 14th century. The coin itself is made of silver and weighs 0.57 grams, which suggests that it was a significant denomination in its time.
