| Beschrijving keerzijde | Irregular hammered silver flan displaying a multi-line Cyrillic inscription within the field, reading ВЕЛИКИЙ КНЯЗЬ / ВАСИЛЕЙ / ДМИТРИЕВИЧ (Grand Prince Vasily Dmitriyevich), arranged in three lines across the coin's surface. The lettering is characteristic of early Muscovite epigraphy, with angular, somewhat crude letterforms consistent with hand-engraved dies of the period. Decorative elements and border devices are faintly visible at the periphery of the flan. The reverse layout follows the common formula for dengas of Vasily I, presenting the ruler's full titulature as the primary design element without a pictorial motif. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Vasily I inherited Moscow's minting apparatus from his father Dmitry Donskoy, who had introduced coinage to the principality only in the 1360s — making these among the earliest indigenous Moscow issues by any measure. The denga circulated alongside a chaotic mix of Tatar, Lithuanian, and rival Russian princely coinages, with no fixed exchange standard enforcing its value beyond Moscow's own authority.
HP II#1285 В places this among the better-documented Hirsch-Pennell varieties, though attribution of individual dengas to specific reign years within this window remains contested given die-link evidence alone.
