Interesting fact
The Denga coin , which features Dmitry Ivanovich Donskoy, was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in Russia. In the late 14th century, the Grand Principality of Moscow was facing threats from both the Mongol Empire and the Teutonic Knights, and Donskoy played a key role in defending the principality against these threats. Despite these challenges, the coinage of the time continued to be minted, and the Denga coin remains a valuable piece of Russian history.
