Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denga - Ivan IV (M) ND (1535-1547) coin from the Russian Empire made of Silver is that it was minted during the reign of Ivan IV, also known as Ivan the Terrible, who was the first Tsar of Russia and ruled from 1547 to 1584. This coin was minted as a means of standardizing currency and promoting trade throughout the empire. It features an image of Ivan IV on one side and the Moscow coat of arms on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant departure from previous coins, which were made of copper or other base metals, and it reflects the growing wealth and influence of the Russian Empire during this time period.
