Comment

Mikhail III of Tver or Michael the Exile (1453–1505) was the last prince of Tver.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Denga coin is that it was issued during the reign of Mikhail Borisovich, who was the Grand Prince of Tver from 1461 to 1485. During his rule, the Grand Principality of Tver experienced significant economic growth and cultural development, and the Denga coin was an important symbol of this prosperity. The fact that it was made of silver and weighed 0.5 grams also speaks to the coin's value and significance during that time period.
