Summary

A hoard of ca. 2400 silver coins, most of them ranging from Septimius Severus to Gallienus, was unearthed in house no. 45 in 1902. 700 specimens arrived in the Kempten Heimatmuseum, several others in private ownership. The provenance of the coins in the Kempten museum can't be ascertained any more, but FMRD publishes a list of 21 coins with RIC references, and a summary list of 363 coins that probably came from this hoard.
