Petro Ilisch in memoriam

The Editors of Polish Numismatic News — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Peter Ilisch has been strongly as sociated with Polish Numismatic News – he published a total of 10 articles in our journal, repeatedly reviewed papers submitted for publication, and was a member of the journal’s Scientific Editorial Board. In the course of this long-term cooperation, Peter Ilisch became known not only as an excellent researcher with very broad horizons and above- average knowledge, but above all as a man of great kindness and patience. As an expression of gratitude for Peter Ilisch’s contribution to numismatics, the editors of Polish Numismatic News dedicate this volume to him.

Context and Time. Inflow and Longevity of Use of Roman Coins in the Settlements of the Przeworsk Culture

Andrzej Romanowski — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

An important element of a comprehensive study of Roman coin finds in the settlement environment of the Przeworsk culture was to determine the time of their influx and functioning within this type of site. The analyses carried out, based on a variety of considerations, indicated complex dynamics in the use of this category of imports and the possible chronological sequences in which they may have been used. At the same time, the main circulation areas of coins within the habitats and the significant correlation between the time of their influx and use and other Roman imports, which largely operated simultaneously here, were identified.

Manifestation or Economy – What Was the Purpose of Issuing the Oldest Polish Coins?

Stanisław Suchodolski — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The oldest Polish coins were issued for both demonstrative and economic purposes. Bolesław the Brave’s (992–1025) unusual titles (princeps, dux inclitus and rex used already before the coronation) testify to its demonstrative nature, while the economic character is evidenced by denarii bearing on both sides exact patterns of foreign coins.

A German Coin Group with Byzantine-Arabic Models and an Overlooked “Type 7”

Bo Gunnarsson — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The present article highlights a remarkable group of German coins that includes examples with both Byzantine and Arabic models. It all started with a couple of auction sales of a type of coin that had one face with a German-inspired image of the emperor and the other face with an image imitating a Byzantine model. It turned out that the coins could be linked to the German coin group, published in 1968 by Vera Hatz and Ulla Linder Welin. A new, seventh type can now be linked to the group, and a number of new specimens are also presented, from finds and from sales. An analysis indicates that the group, previously associated with Franconia and the Middle Rhine region, was probably minted in a more easterly but still undefined location of the Empire.

East Goes West: Baltic and Russian Coin Finds from Tudor England and Wales

Murray Andrews — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The “long 16th century” was a period of profound growth in the Anglo-Baltic trade, a phenomenon that is well known from written sources yet only poorly glimpsed in the archaeological record. In order to “fill the gap”, this article examines a previously unstudied corpus of 35 English and Welsh finds of Baltic and Russian coins dated to the Tudor period (1485–1603). The corpus consists mostly of low value silver and billon coins, whose chronology and provenances closely reflect the documented growth of English trade in the Baltic. While none of these coins were ever lawfully permitted to circulate in England and Wales, their spatial spread and composition suggests that they circulated as unofficial substitutes for similarly sized English coins, particularly low value pennies and halfpennies. The coin finds therefore not only reflect the increasingly interconnected trade routes of 16th century Europe, but also demonstrate the differences between official territorial currencies and the more informal systems that emerged in early modern towns and the countryside.

Between Vitebsk, Rapperswil and Warsaw – Life and Work of Konstanty Żmigrodzki

Raman Krytsuk, Valery Shyshanau — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

This article describes the life and work of Konstanty Żmigrodzki (1876–1936), an artist, medalist and museologist who has almost been forgotten today. The first period of his activity fell in the years 1906–1913, when Konstanty lived and worked in Vitebsk. He was an active member of the Vitebsk Scientific Archival Commission, where he worked on the numismatic collections of the museum. In 1913–1927, Żmigrodzki lived in Switzerland – there he was the director of the Polish Museum in Rapperswil, and the main part of his work was the organisation of the local collection of coins and medals. During this period, Konstanty designed and made his first medals. In 1927, the collection of the Rapperswil Museum was given to the Polish state and moved to Warsaw. Żmigrodzki himself also came to the capital, and in the last period of his life (1927–1936) he continued to actively catalog objects from Rapperswil, and for some time he was the director of the Numismatic Cabinet of the State Art Collections. He still created new medals and published hoards after coming to the museum. He died in 1936.

Coins from the Zygmunt Mineyko’s Collection in the Cabinet of Coins and Medals of the National Museum in Warsaw

Tomasz Teinert — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The article presents the history of the donation from Zygmunt Mineyko, consisting of 130 ancient Greek, Roman, and Byzantine coins. The text includes a profile of the donor, the circumstances of the collection’s transfer, and the context of provenance research. The most significant element of the article is an extensive catalogue of the coins, including those considered lost after World War II.

The discovery of New Die Chains of Bolesław the Brave’s Coinage and Their Results. An Unknown Hoard from Geiseltal near Merseburg

Stanisław Suchodolski, Jacek Szolc — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Thanks to the discovery of new die links of Bolesław the Brave (992–1025) coins, the image of Polish coinage at the beginning of the 11th century has been corrected. Coins were minted at that time in Poznań and Gniezno. Since many coin types were issued in short time intervals, the dies used to strike them linked to each other many times. This is how die chains were created. So far, four such chains were identified. A hitherto unknown hybrid of the Bavarian-Saxon type has been identified in a hoard from Geiseltal in Saxony (Merseburg-Querfurt District, tpq 1070). Die of one of this coin sides is linked with dies from chain no. 3, while the second die is embedded in chain 4. So it turned out that chains 3 and 4 connect. As a consequence, chain 3 was enlarged and chain 4 did not exist at all. In addition, it was possible to distinguish three other coins, one side of which was previously unknown. Thanks to this, chains 2 and 3 were extended. Of particular importance is the discovery of the previously missing imitation of the obverse of the Cologne-type die. Until now, only the reverse of this coin was well known.

A Seventeenth–Century Hoard of Gold Coins from Głębinów near Nysa

Borys Paszkiewicz — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

From a large hoard of approximately 250 coins, only ten pieces, dating from 1530–1633, have been described. The coins come from the Northern Netherlands, Austria, Hungary and Transylvania. The work relates the hoard to the background of the military events of the Thirty Years’ War and to hoards consisting exclusively gold coins, found in the Bohemian Crown Lands

His Dominium in Galicia – Remarks on Settlement Tokens with the Initials KD

Krystian Browarny — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The article concerns an unidentified settlement token with the letters KD that has recently appeared in the collectors’ market. In the study, the author made a successful attempt to attribute the mark to the appropriate territory and issuer. The tokens were most likely issued in the 1830s–1850s by Kazimierz Domaradzki, the owner of Denysów – an estate in today’s western Ukraine. The study also presents the results of direct research on 30 settlement marks with the initials KD
