| Beschrijving keerzijde | A mounted horseman in right profile occupies the central field, depicted riding a prancing horse and brandishing a spear or lance held upright in the right hand. The figure is rendered in a schematic, archaic style typical of early Muscovite hammered coinage. A Cyrillic inscription naming Grand Prince Vasily runs around the periphery within a beaded border. The design is characteristic of the Moscow mint's standard horseman type adopted under Vasily I, serving as an early precursor to the later St. George motif on Russian coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Vasily I spent much of his reign navigating the collapsing authority of the Golden Horde, playing Muscovite autonomy against successive Tatar khans with considerable political skill. The denga coinage of his reign reflects this instability directly — Muscovite silver issues from the 1420s show marked inconsistency in weight standards as the principality asserted greater control over its own monetary output, no longer calibrating exclusively to Horde-set norms. This particular emission falls within that transitional window.
