Http://silver-copeck.ru/8019/23.htmlInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denga (type 2; O ● ♰ ● C) ND (1420-1478) from Novgorod Republic (Rus Principalities) made of Silver is that it features a unique blend of Russian and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a prince, likely representing the Novgorodian prince, while the reverse side features the Mongolian emblem of the "Golden Horde," indicating the coin's minting during the period of Mongolian rule over the region. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex political and cultural landscape of the time and adds historical significance to the coin.
