Comment
Galich-ZvenigorodInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Denga coin is that it was used as a form of currency during the reign of Dmitry Yurievich, who was the prince of Zvenygorod and a prominent figure in the Rus Principalities. The coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and widely accepted metal at the time, and it featured an image of the prince on one side and a symbol of the principality on the other. Despite its age, some of these coins have been well-preserved and are now highly sought after by collectors and historians.
