Abstract

The German denarii of the Saxon and Salian periods travelled in trade largely to northern and eastern Europe and were hoarded there, while southern Europe yields far less. Coins that followed the Danube into Hungary and the Balkans raise the question whether they arrived through the Regensburg trade or in the wake of the crusades. To the known finds from Gran, Zombor and two unnamed Balkan sites another is now added: on a journey in Greece a numismatist was offered medieval pfennigs said to have been found in Thrace. After purchase the 44 denarii proved to be a group with the character of a find, datable through the mint lords they name.
