SUMMARY COIN HOARDS FROM CROATIA XV. HOARD OF 15TH C TURKISH SILVER COINS FROM ŽUPANJA The hoard of silver akches of Sultan Murad II (1421-1444 ; 1445-1451) is one of smaller in size, yet important treasures of Turkish coins unearthed in Croatia. At the same time it is the earliest known hoard of Ottoman money in these regions. It was brought to the Zagreb Archaeological Museum in 1910, thanks to the tenacy of the Museum director Josip Brunšmid and its curator Viktor Hoffiller, as well as the support given by Janko Sokolić, the head of the district and Vinko Oršolić, the head of the communal administration at Županja. As usual, it remains to speculate how many coins were in fact found, ten kilogrammes or merely a hundred-odd akches. Namely Alda Balentović, the father of one and uncle of another of the boys of who had found the treasure claimed that there were only a hundred coins whereas the neighbours spoke of ten kilogrammes. The Ottoman Empire was in its ascent under Sultan Murad II, who reigned twice between 1421 and 1444, and a second time from 1445 until 1451. Its armies penetrated deep into Europe, especially its eastern parts and the conquest of Constantinople was only a question of time. Ottoman coins, struck in the 15th i 16th centuries, can be found in some hoards in Croatia and Slavonia, Serbia, Vojvodina, even as far as Ljubljana, still they do not form the bulk of the coins within the treasure. The Županja hoard contained coins struck in Edirne (Adrianopolis, Jedrene), Novar (Novo Brdo) and Siruz (Seres). Normally it’ s considered that the year, which can be read on Osmanic coins, corresponds to the year of the ascent to throne of a sultan. As Murat II came to the throne twice, this principle is not always respected. Therefore his coins bear unusual years of minting. According to Ismail Ghalib (1307 (1889): 30-35), akches and mangurs have three different years: 824, 825 i 834, where only 824 of the Hegira corresponds to the year of Murat’ s first ascent to the throne, and according to Galib, this year can be read only on coins struck in Bursa. All coins found at Županja bear the year 834 of the Hegira (lasting from 19th Sept. 1430 to 8th Sept. 1431) godine. These coins were minted in three mints: Jedrene, Novar i Serez.
