EN A few ancient Roman coins have been recorded (for sure, or possibly) in hoards of silver dated 10th and 11th centuries in south-eastern part of Baltic region from Nāvessala (Latvia), Eversmuiža (Latvia), Shpan’kovo (Leningrad Oblast, Russia), Kurkijoki (Republic of Karelia, Russia) and in the vicinity of Tallinn (Estonia). These hoards contained mostly early medieval coins (mainly Islamic and western European) and silver ornaments, both complete and in fragments. The problem should be considered within a phenomenon of the presence of ancient coins in early medieval hoards of the 9th-12th century found in the whole Baltic region, especially in its south-western part. Taking into account only reliable finds, we have 16 hoards like this from Scandinavia and 31 from present-day Poland and eastern Germany. These tend to be hacksilver hoards, typical for the region during that age. Ancient coins found in these hoards amount to about 150 specimens, an overwhelming majority of which are Roman Imperial denarii. Most possibly ancient silver coins had a function similar to other coins and silver objects; all of them served mainly as bullion coins, usually accepted by weight. Probably ancient coins discovered in early medieval hoards from the Baltic region came from more than one source. E.g., some may have been found locally in the Middle Ages (like Roman antoniniani from the Nāvessala hoard), others could be medieval imports from other areas (like a Roman quinarius from Eversmuiža). Unfortunately we are still unable to answer a crucial question: why do we find ancient coins almost exclusively in hoards dated back a narrow time-period of 9th — early 12th century and restricted in their distribution to a relatively small area of the Baltic region? This disproportion becomes particularly obvious when we consider the huge number of deposits of early medieval silver that have been recorded in Eastern, Central and Northern Europe.
