On the hoard of 15-16th-century Russian coins discovered in the Kazan Kremlin on May, 4, 1909

A significant hoard of 15–16th-century Russian coins, discovered in the Kazan Kremlin on May 4, 1909, provides valuable insights into the monetary circulation and economic history of the region during a pivotal period. The analysis reveals a diverse collection of coins, including examples from Moscow, Novgorod, and other principalities, suggesting robust trade and diplomatic ties across medieval Russia. The study employs numismatic techniques to classify and date the coins, offering a rare glimpse into the economic dynamics of the Kazan Khanate and its interactions with neighboring states during the transition from the Middle Ages to the early modern period.
