Abstract

In 2008, silver coins were found during an archeological excavation at Kossuth square in Pécs. The coin hoard which consisted of 381 pieces of coins was found in a sporran from next to some broken potteries. Restorations of the silver coins were done by the archeological Department of Janus Pannonius Museum. after their specifications were made, we have analyzed the coin hoard by means of numismatics methodology. Considering the occurence and the time of concealment of the artifacts, construction of the silver coins is unique in relation to many other coin hoards dating back to the same era. It seems that the owner of the silver coins hid his pouch after 1560.
