Abstract
The purpose of the article is to compare the chemical content of the type-4 coins of Władysław II Wygnaniec (Wladislaw II the Exile) and the type-1, 2 and 3 coins of Bolesław IV Kędzierzawy (Boleslav IV the Curly) of the Głogów hoard and of the Dąbrowa Górnicza-Łosień hoard (“the metallurgist’s hoard”). A non-invasive method of X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) was used to study the chemical content. The analyses indicated a similar concentration of elements in the coins that were studied. However, differences were registered in the content of silver lumps and bars. According to the authors of the article, it is likely that the silver bars from Głogów did not result from the smelting of silver from the local Silesian deposits but they are derived from the smelting of silver which was acquired earlier. The chemical content may indicate a purposeful addition of copper and small amounts of gold. This would mean that the silver that was deposited in the Głogów hoard could have been a semi-finished product that was furnished directly for the mint. It is also possible that the bars were made after the 12th-century coins were melted. The silver from Łosień is derived directly from the smelting of the local raw material, which is indicated inter alia by the percentage of lead (up to 18%) and contaminants.
