Reverse description Irregular hammered silver flan with a Cyrillic legend distributed across the field, reading ДЕНГА ПСКОВСКАЯ, identifying this as a Denga of Pskov. The inscription is arranged in multiple lines and partially bordered by a dotted or beaded inner circle, a common decorative device on medieval Russian wire money and hammered issues. The die work is crude and characteristic of provincial Pskovian mint practice, with uneven letter spacing and strike quality resulting from hand-hammering techniques. The flan edges are jagged and uneven, consistent with the production methods of the period.
