According to a statement provided by the Ferenczy Museum Centre, archaeologists have unearthed approximately 7,000 silver coins and 4 gold coins at a medieval site located in Újlengyel, Hungary. This discovery is the most valuable hoard of coins that has ever been found in Pest County and dates back to the late Middle Ages. The excavation of the site lasted two days and was led by Balázs Nagy, who is the museum centre’s numismatist, in addition to help provided by the Community Archaeology Association. They decided to dig at the site after 150 medieval coins were unearthed there in 2019. In this most recent dig, archaeologists located a spot to dig thanks to metal detectorists who surveyed the area and they opened up a 1×1 meter trench. They found that a plough had broken the vessel that had been buried with the coins inside of it, so many of the coins were spread out along the path that the plough took.
