| Beschrijving keerzijde | A pseudo-Arabic inscription arranged within a rectangular cartouche or square frame, imitating the Tatar monetary legends of the Golden Horde. The lettering is deliberately stylized and non-legible, reflecting the imitative nature of this coinage type. The design occupies the central field, with the crude flan boundary visible around the periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Vasily I ruled Moscow from 1389 to 1425, navigating the complicated reality of nominal Tatar suzerainty while steadily consolidating Muscovite power. The Arabic legend imitation on this piece is not decoration — it reflects the political calculus of a prince who still owed formal tribute acknowledgment to the Golden Horde and whose coins needed to pass in a monetary environment where Tatar-script issues carried transactional legitimacy. The imitation legend is garbled, almost certainly copied by die cutters who were illiterate in Arabic.
The half-denga denomination served the smallest end of daily exchange in a period before Moscow had fully standardized its coinage weights.
