Title
ESS-B66F64 Post Medieval Coin: Russian half denga of Ivan IV
Description
English: Medieval silver coin: Russian half denga of Ivan IV, the Great Prince, before he became Tsar and Ivan 'the Terrible', dating 1533-47, minted in Pskov (Russia) (Kaim no. 1019). The obverse shows a horseman with upward pointing sword. The reverse inscription is in Cyrillic, reading [Қ]НЅЬ/[В]Е[А]ІИ/[І]ВАНЗ/ПСК (Great Prince Ivan, Pskov). These issues were made from thick silver wire simply cut to the right weight and struck, hence the slightly squashed, oval shape. The coin measures 14.24mm by 10.94mm, is 1.03mm thick and weighs 0.66 grams.
