Interesting fact
The Srebrennik - Vladimir the Great (type III) ND (980-1015) coin from Kyivan Rus is notable for its unique design, which features a crowned figure of Vladimir the Great on the obverse (front side) and a representation of the Virgin Mary on the reverse (back side). This design was used during a time when Christianity was still a relatively new religion in Eastern Europe, and it reflects the importance of religion in the culture and politics of the region during that period.
