Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Denga coin is that it was used as a form of currency in the Grand Principality of Ryazan, which was a medieval state that existed from the 12th to the 16th century in the territory of modern-day Russia. The coin was made of silver and weighed 1.17 grams, which was a significant amount for a coin at that time. It's fascinating to think about how this coin was used in everyday transactions and how it played a role in the economy of the time.
