| Obverse description | Obverse of this irregularly shaped hammered silver denga depicting a stylized figure, likely a warrior or horseman, rendered in a crude but characteristic medieval Muscovite die-cutting style. The design occupies the central field of the flan, which is notably uneven and partially clipped at the upper edge. The low relief and worn surfaces are consistent with typical circulation wear of early Muscovite coinage. The Cyrillic legend КНЯЗЬ ВАСИЛЕЙ (Prince Vasily) is associated with this face, though legibility is limited due to the irregular flan and striking pressure. The overall composition reflects the primitive minting technique common to late 14th- and early 15th-century Russian wire money precursors. |
