In the past, scientist thought that for many centuries only leather and furs were used in ancient Russia as money. Bat now it is known that money was also used.

In the XII-XIV centuries almost all the coins disappeared in Russia. It happened because Russia was at war with the German Knights and the Mongol-Tartars at the same time. After the war the Russians had to fight with the Mongol-Tartars. So normal trade and economic ties with both the West and the East were broken. People began to hide money not to pay it to the Mongol-Tartars, that is why archaeologists to this day find a lot of coins from that period.

In the XIV century some Russian principalities began to make their own silver coins. In ancient Russia the world «rouble» meant a silver piece which weighed 200 grams. The coins were called denga. It was difficult to use them in the country as were more than 25 cities.

In 1534 a single monetary system was introduced in Russian state. In showed that the long process of unification of the country was over. A new coin – a silver copeck - was made. I the 17^th century Peter the Great began to rule the country and made many changes in Russia, and one of them was a new monetary system. A silver rouble became the main coin, there were 10 copecks and 5 copecks.

In 1769 the first Russian paper money appeared. When World War I began all gold and silver coins disappeared and only paper money was used at that time.
