Der Münzfund von Goddula (Schlußmünze 1815) - Untersuchungen zum Geldumlauf der preußischen Provinz Sachsen in ihrer Frühzeit

Abstract

Author studies the hoard from Goddula, Kreis Merseburg-Querfurt, unburied in 1936, containing 160 coins of the 18th and 19th century. The hoard is composed by 76 coins of Brandenburg-Preussen, 70 of Saxony, further pieces from Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel (9), Hesse-Kassel (1), the Hapsburg countries (3) and the kingdom of Westfalia (1). The hoard is typical for the Saxonian and Prussian currency system. It shows that in those Saxonian border areas, which in 1815 came to the Merseburg district of the Prussian province of Saxony, yet before this date Prussian currency was in circulation. The most common denomination in this hoard is the one twelfth of the Taler (or double groschen)
