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 in the 13th to 16th centuries in the territory of modern-day Russia. The coin was made of silver and had a unique design, featuring an image of Oleg II Ivanovich, the ruler of the principality at the time. The use of silver in the coin's production was significant because it was a valuable and durable metal that was widely used in the production of currency during that time period.
