The Nadelberg Treasure Trove, Closing Date after 1341

Description

The largest Basel treasure find was made in the front building of the «Schöne Haus» on the Nadelberg. Two vessels containing together more than 5,000 silver pennies from Basel, Zurich, Zofingen and a few other mints were found enclosed in a wall. The composition of the two complexes reflects the intricate monetary conditions of the first half of the 14th century.
