| Beschrijving voorzijde | A mounted warrior or horseman depicted in profile facing right, shown in dynamic motion within a beaded inner circle. The figure, characteristic of medieval Russian appanage coinage of the early 15th century, is rendered in a crude but expressive style typical of hammered Zvenygorod dengas. The design occupies the central field with minimal surrounding space, the strike irregular as is standard for hand-struck issues of this period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Cyrillic legend arranged within the field in several lines, typical of appanage-period Russian denga coinage, likely reading the prince's name or title in abbreviated form. The inscription is set within a beaded border and the lettering is somewhat crude and irregular, consistent with the hand-engraved dies used for Zvenygorod issues under Dmitry Yurievich. The reverse field shows moderate flatness and die wear characteristic of hammered silver coinage of the first half of the 15th century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Dmitry Yurievich — known as Shemyaka — minted these dengas during one of the most destructive civil wars in medieval Russian history, the conflict now called the Muscovite dynastic war. He blinded his cousin Vasily II in 1446 and briefly seized the Grand Principality of Moscow, yet Zvenygorod remained his primary base of power throughout. His coinage is notoriously difficult to attribute with precision; the principality's issues overlap with Muscovite types in both iconography and weight standard, and several attributions in older catalogs remain contested.
