Interesting fact
The Denga ND coin was used as a means of payment and exchange during the reign of Grand Prince Ivan III (1462-1505) and his son, Vasily III (1505-1533). It was an important symbol of the economic and political power of the Pskov Republic, which was a medieval state that existed from the 14th to the 16th century in the northwestern part of Russia. The coin's design featured the image of a prince on one side and the Pskov coat of arms on the other, signifying the republic's independence and sovereignty. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not as valuable as other coins of its time, such as the Novgorodian denga, which was made of gold. Nevertheless, the Denga ND coin played a significant role in the economy of the Pskov Republic and remains a valuable piece of history for numismatists and collectors today.
