Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pulo - Ivan III (Moscow) ND (1478-1505) coin is that it features a unique blend of Russian and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of Ivan III, also known as Ivan the Great, who was the Grand Prince of Moscow and the first ruler of the Grand Principality of Moscow. The reverse side of the coin features a stylized image of a horseman, which was a common motif in Mongolian coinage during that time period. This blending of design elements reflects the complex cultural and political relationships between the Rus Principalities and the Mongol Empire during the 15th century.
