Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Russian and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features the image of a warrior, likely representing Vasily I Dmitriyevich, while the reverse side features a Mongolian-style legend in Cyrillic script. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex political and cultural landscape of medieval Russia, which was heavily influenced by the Mongol Empire.
