Ordinary Walk Unmasks 900-Year-Old Trove: 2,150 Medieval Silver Denarii Found in Czech Field
A woman on an ordinary walk discovered a shattered ceramic pot containing over 2,150 silver denarii buried about the early 12th century, the largest early medieval coin hoard found in the Kutnohorsk region. Minted in Prague and tied to dynastic turmoil, the hoard is undergoing conservation and cataloging to illuminate Bohemia’s medieval economy and political authority.
