一位德国居民在挖一个游泳池时发掘了一堆中世纪的硬币

一个西南德国城镇的居民正在进行建设项目，该项目发现了公元1320年左右的中世纪硬币。

A resident of a southwest German town was working on a construction project when he unearthed a stash of medieval coins that were minted around 1320 AD, according to a statement from the State Office for Monument Preservation from the Stuttgart regional council.

斯图特加特地区委员会的一份声明说，西南德国城镇的居民正在从1320年大约1320年造成的中世纪硬币藏起来，当时他正在从事建设项目。

While laying down underground piping near a swimming pool, Völker, a resident of German municipality Glottertal, found “small metal plates” in the earth as he was beginning his work.

在游泳池附近放下地下管道时，德国市政府居民的居民Völker在他开始工作时在地球上发现了“小金属板”。

On the same day, archaeologists descended on the site and quickly uncovered roughly 1,000 coins. The next day, rain turned the soil into knee-deep mud, but the archaeologists armed themselves with metal detectors and still recovered approximately 600 additional metal coins.

同一天，考古学家降落在现场，迅速发现了大约1,000枚硬币。第二天，雨水将土壤变成了膝盖深的泥浆，但是考古学家用金属探测器武装了自己，但仍恢复了大约600个金属硬币。

Most of the coins are from the Breisach, Zofingen, and Freiburg mints, all created sometime around 1320 AD. The collection also includes isolated coins minted in Basel, St. Gallen, Zurich, Laufenburg, and Colmar.

大多数硬币来自Breisach，Zofingen和Freiburg Mints，它们都在公元1320年的某个时候创作。该系列还包括在巴塞尔，圣加伦，苏黎世，劳芬堡和科尔马的孤立硬币。

Just how valuable was the collection at the time they were presumably lost in the German soil? “You could have bought about 150 sheep with the coins,”

当时的收藏大概在德国土壤中丢失了多么有价值？ “您可能已经用硬币买了大约150只绵羊。”

The experts credit Völker’s attentiveness in the “discovery of one of the most extensive medieval coin treasures of the last few decades.” Without it, the coins would still just be a bunch of junk in the dirt.

专家认为，Völker对“发现了过去几十年中最广泛的中世纪硬币珍宝之一”的关注。没有它，硬币仍然只是泥土中的一堆垃圾。

The region the coins were found may hold additional hidden secrets based on the site’s past. “Glottertal has been one of the most important mining areas for the dukes of Freiburg,”

发现硬币的区域可能会根据该网站的过去保存其他隐藏的秘密。 “ Glottertal一直是Freiburg公爵的最重要的采矿区之一，”

In 2016, in nearby Switzerland, more than 200 coins from the 1300s were discovered by chance by a mushroom picker in a forest near Zurich.

2016年，在附近的瑞士，在苏黎世附近的森林中，一名蘑菇采摘者偶然发现了200多个1300年代的硬币。

Those coins were only enough to buy 25 sheep, however. These finds, along with others in the region, help tell a historic tale, sometimes of political instability or payments for mercenary armies.

但是，这些硬币只能购买25只羊。这些发现与该地区的其他人一起，有助于讲述一个历史性的故事，有时是政治不稳定或雇佣军的付款。

Not only does the newfound coin stockpile give a jolt of excitement to the region and offer up a new trove to investigate, but it could lead to deeper understanding of the region at the time. “The evaluation of this coin treasure will enable statements to be made about the coin circulation in Breisgau, the minting activity in the mints, the silver trade, but also about the mining in the Glottertal,” Haasis-Berner said.

新发现的硬币储备不仅给该地区带来了兴奋的震撼，并提供了新的调查，而且还可能导致对当时该地区的更深入了解。 Haasis-Berner说：“对这种硬币宝藏的评估将使您可以就Breisgau的硬币循环，造币厂的造币活动，银贸易的造币活动，以及关于Glottertal中的采矿作品做出的陈述。”
