In 1972 the Geldmuseum of the Deutsche Bundesbank was able to acquire an important coin hoard, together with its container. The find had been discovered in the previous year during the extension and modernisation of a farmhouse in the East Frisian village of Walle, today a suburb of Aurich.
The Walle hoard, containing 468 silver eo ins, is the largest coin hoard of the early modern period known from this area and probably one of the few which have been recovered and preserved entire. lt is therefore a pleasant task to publish this hoard and present it herewith in public as a monograph.
