Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denga coin is that it was used as a form of currency during a time of great change and upheaval in Russia. The coin was minted during the reign of Peter I, also known as Peter the Great, who ruled from 1682 to 1725. This was a period of significant modernization and westernization in Russia, and the Denga coin was an important part of the country's economy during this time. Despite its small weight of 0.2 grams, the coin played a big role in the everyday transactions of the Russian people, and it remains an interesting piece of history for collectors and numismatists today.
