Interesting fact
The Denga coin , which features Dmitry Ivanovich Donskoy, was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Russia. In the late 14th century, the Grand Principality of Moscow was facing threats from both within and outside its borders, including the Golden Horde and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Despite these challenges, Dmitry Ivanovich Donskoy was able to maintain his power and influence, and his coinage remains a testament to the enduring legacy of his rule.
