An elderly gentleman from Slovakia found a treasure on his property. He dug up a jug full of silver coins. The value of the find was estimated by experts at 30,000 euros, and the finder was rewarded the same amount.

A man found the jug full of silver coins, approximately 500 years old, on his property in Devinská Nová Ves. He immediately handed over the find to the relevant heritage office. "It has great numismatic and incalculable historical value. For us, it is the most important find so far," said Renáta Glaser - Opitzová from the Heritage Institute in Bratislava.

"In Slovakia, however, it works differently. The finder is not the owner and is obliged to report the find no later than the next working day," said legal Antonín Pavúk in 2014.

The discovery from Devinská Nová Ves was unique. You don't find something like this every day. Because the elderly man duly reported the find to the Heritage Office, he was duly rewarded. "The value of the find was determined by an expert opinion at 30,000 euros and we will pay the same amount to the finder," Glaser-Opitz said at the time.

However, it is not a rule that the finder receives an amount equal to the value of the find. Certain conditions must be met. If, for example, the man had reported the find to the museum and not to the heritage office, or had failed to meet the deadline of two days after the find, he could receive a reward of only 10 percent of the value of the find or nothing at all.

The depot contained exactly 10,268 silver coins from the fifteenth to seventeenth centuries. It was stored in an earthenware jar. The size and composition of the coins make this a very exceptional archaeological find in Slovakia. The depot contains various coins of Hungarian and Polish coins, but also Czech and Austrian coins.

The predominant coins are Hungarian denarii and half denarii of Matthias Corvinus, Ferdinand I, Maximilian II and Rudolf II. The find weighed a total of 6035.2 grams. Someone probably hid it during the difficult political situation in Hungary, just before the outbreak of Gabriel Bethlen's anti-Habsburg rebellion around 1623.
