Монеты из раскопок позднесредневекового Выборга
Coins from the Excavations of the Late Medieval Vyborg

Summary/Abstract: In 2019, the Leningrad Regional Archaeological Expedition of the “Current Archeology” Research Center carried out excavations in Vyborg (Storozhevaya Bashnya Street, 21). During the excavations, 76 coins were registered, issued by the Kingdom of Sweden (24), the Russian Empire and the Grand Duchy of Finland (47), the German Empire (1) and the USSR (1). Three coins made of copper alloy remained unidentified due to poor preservation. The distribution of coins found in 2019 by stratigraphic horizons and objects made it possible to clarify the time of their formation. When using coins as a chronological indicator, the duration of their possible presence in circulation was taken into account, as revealed by the materials of archaeological finds and written sources. To date, only one work has been published in the form of theses, dedicated to numismatic finds obtained during the archaeological study of Vyborg.
