| Interaktiver Katalog des Münzkabinetts | The coin collection of the Institute of Classical Archaeology at the University of Regensburg originates from the private collection of the engineer and architect Franz Langlotz (1876-1953). Due to his personal interest and passion he managed to collect many objects of ancient art – including Attic and southern Italian painted ceramics, 42 (mostly Roman) glass vessels, small bronze objects, Hellenistic terracotta statuettes – and 25 coins (mainly Roman denarii).
Born in Regensburg, Langlotz bequeathed half of this collection, including the coins, to his former school, the Humanistisches Gymnasium, now the Albertus-Magnus-Gymnasium. From 1991 to 1994, on the initiative of Prof Dr Dieter Salzmann, over 800 ancient coins were added, mainly as donations from various German auction houses and coin cabinets as well as permanent loans from the Historisches Museum Regensburg.
Designed as a study collection, it covers all the important historical regions and Roman provinces of the Mediterranean from the the Greek Archaic period to the Byzantine era. | MK Regensburg | | 64 | |

| Digitales Münzkabinett des<br> Akademischen Kunstmuseums der Universität Bonn | The University of Bonn was founded in 1818. Only one year later, the university bought the well known coin collection of Canonicus Franz Pick (1750-1819) in a public auction, held the 27th August 1819. The collection consisted of five gold, 500 silver and more than 2000 bronze coins. Over decades F. Pick had collected objects of art, especially antiques and Roman coins, coming from hoards in the north of Bonn, the region of the former roman legion camp. The first director of the "Akademisches Kunstmuseum" (AKM) of the university, F.G. Welcker, augmented the collection in the following decades, also by buying coins found in and around Bonn. Later coin hoards came to the "Museum Rheinscher Alterthümer", wich was established in 1822, the predecessor of the "Rheinsches Landesmuseum Bonn". The first catalogue of the coin collection of the "Akademisches Kunstmuseum", written in 1836, assembled, more than 6,000 coins. These coins are still the essential part of the actual coin collection of the AKM. This collection – together with Greek coins, donated in the beginning of the last century, und some new acqusitions – was taken 2010 in a digital database and is therefore now open for the students of the university as well as for extern visitors. | Münzkabinett Bonn | | 1838 | |

| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Eichstätt | The coin collection of the chair of ancient history at the Catholic University of Eichstaett-Ingolstadt was founded in the mid-eighties. Since its establishment, the collection has been gradually expanded and missing pieces have been acquired, so that there are now 353 coins in total, that cover the range from classical Greece up to late antiquity and byzantine times. The collection contains mostly roman coins, although there are both Greek and Hellenistic coins, as well as mintages from the periphery of the Roman Empire, like Parthian and Celtic coins. The focus lies on Roman Imperial coinage, which make up the largest part of the collection, and is framed by smaller assemblages from Roman Republican times and late antiquity. Because of the lack of a proper edition, since 2013, the Eichstaett coin collection became a big part of everyday teaching at the university and contributed to various student- and research-projects, that helped systematise, edit and even exhibit several of these coins. | Universität Eichstätt | | 330 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Erlangen | The Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) owns roughly 30.000 coins and medals, ranging from Greek and Roman specimens to modern currencies. These originate from various sources, such as the collections of Gerlach, Heerdegen, Luthart, Pick, Sinugowitz, Varnhagen, Voit von Salzburg, Will, Zucker, as well as the items of the “Ilse und Ulrich Zwicker Stiftung”. The Will collection, consisting of about 12.000 pieces, and the Zwicker foundation with its approx. 11.000 objects, make roughly two thirds of the whole lot. The eldest collection was composed by Friedrich Voit von Salzburg between 1845 and 1858. The most recent accession, the objects of the “Ilse und Ulrich Zwicker Stiftung”, took place at the beginning of this century. The chronological and regional emphasis of the coins differs by each collection with a particular focus on antiquity, from the Greek and Romans until the end of the Byzantine times. | Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg | | 128 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Goethe-Universität, Frankfurt am Main | The coin collections of the Goethe University are located in the Institute for Archaeological Sciences, and reside partly in the Antiquities Collection of Abteilung I (Classical Archaology) and partly in the collections of Abteilung II (Archaeology and History of the Roman Provinces and the Archaeology of Coins, Money and the Economy in the Ancient World). The Antiquities Collection of the Goethe University, based at the Classical Archaeology Department of the Institute for Archaeological Sciences includes around 250 ancient coins alongside a rich collection of ancient vases, glass, lamps, terracottas and other objects. Roman coins form the focus of the coin collection, supplemented by a small number of Greek, Jewish, medieval and modern coins. The coins are regularly used in teaching as study objects, especially for iconographic questions, but also for numismatic identification exercises. The largest part of the numismatic collections of Department II of the Institute for Archaeological Sciences at the Goethe University Frankfurt pertains to around 30,000 plaster cast of ancient coins, encompassing all periods of antiquity. The casts were originally made as research tools for scholars such as Konrad Kraft, Richard Delbrueck and Susanne Grunauer-von Hoerschelmann. A particular strength of the plaster cast collection is lies in the Roman Provincial Coinage. The department also owns two collections of original coins: a teaching collection of around 75 pieces, and a special collection of roman coins with countermarks, encompassing around 300 pieces. | Universität Frankfurt | | 517 | |
| Interaktiver Katalog der Münzsammlung | The Seminar of Ancient History holds more than 12,000 coins of the Roman Imperial period and Late Antiquity. Their majority originates from a collection which Herbert Nesselhaus, the former Professor of Ancient History, was able to purchase in 1961 from the Archbishopric of Freiburg. The collection had found a temporary home there some twenty years earlier: Between 1900 and 1926 the Geheimer Oberbaurat Heinrich Wefels from Erlangen built a collection of c. 14,000 coins, which he had acquired at various auctions. About 10,300 are coins of Roman emperors and an additional 2,400 represent provincial issues. Wefels focussed on the Imperial period, but did add both earlier and later coinages, too. About 950 Byzantine coins, 360 Roman Republican ones, 220 Greek issues, and 22 Celic coins bear witness to these secondary areas of interest. Although the Seminar für Alte Geschichte is not any longer able to purchase additional coins, its collection was augmented through generous donations by Herbert A. Cahn, Otto Feld and Gerold Walser. Today the collection is complemented by a scientific numismatic library, which again originates in the collector Heinrich Wefels. | Universität Freiburg | | 10565 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Greifswald | The University of Greifswald’s Academic Coin Cabinet comprises 1,200 coins and medals that date from antiquity up until the start of the 20th Century. The core collections are bracteates from the 12th/13th Centuries, coins from German territories of the early modern period and Pomeranian medals awarded for science, art, and history. Further coin collections belonging to the University of Greifswald are held as part of the Gustaf Dalman Collection (on the history of Palestine), the Victor Schultze Collection (on Christian archaeology) and in the collection of prehistoric antiquities. | Universität Greifswald | | 126 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Halle | In 1841, the United Friedrichs-University Halle-Wittenberg decided to set up an archaeological University collection. However, this project could not be implemented until 1849. In this year the first quite small archaeological gallery was opened as the first public art collection in Halle. The core of this museum was the "Münzkabinett" formed by Johann Heinrich Schulze (1687-1744), which already provided access to original coins for lectures and exercises on ancient numismatics during his life-time. By doing this Schulze became a founder of numismatic teaching at University. This core collection, the "Numophylacium Schulzianum", can thus be linked to the development of the European Enlightenment in the 18th century in Halle, and it still is preserved here today. Almost half of today’s inventory of c. 5.000 coins (a total of c. 1.400 Greek, some Byzantine, and Oriental coins, the remaining two thirds are Roman) originates from Schulze’s collection. | Universität Halle | | 78 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett<br>der Universität Heidelberg | The Seminar für Alte Geschichte und Epigraphik of Heidelberg University together with the Institut Klassische Archäologie holds a collection of more than 4,000 Greek and Roman coins. The collection dates back to Georg Friedrich Kreutzer (1771-1858) and grew with later purchases and donations. From the beginning, the collection was conceived to be used for teaching purposes, highlighting the history of coinage from its origins in ancient Greece down to Late Antiquity. | Universität Heidelberg | | 221 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett<br>der Antikensammlung zu Kiel | The Coin collection of Kiel University is kept by two institutions: The Antikensammlung of the University of Kiel holds a collection of circa 1,100 Greek and Roman coins, housed in the Kunsthalle zu Kiel. The collection for the most part originates from donations of the Danish king Christian VIII Friedrich (1786–1848) as well as acquisitions by Peter Wilhelm Forchhammer (1801–1894), professor of Classical Archaeology in Kiel, later supplemented by further purchases and donations. Roman Imperial coinage constitutes the vast majority of the collection, that was conceived to be used for teaching purposes and today is occasionally incorporated into the seminars of Classical Archaeology in Kiel. Only a few years ago, the Institute of Classical Studies at Kiel University (Department of Ancient History) started to compile a small numismatic collection. Currently, it comprises nearly 80 ancient (mainly Roman) coins. | Universität Kiel | | 309 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Konstanz | Since 2009 the University of Konstanz houses a small collection of ancient coins, all donated by private sponsors. The focus lies on coins from late antiquity, but some of the ca. 150 objects derive from the early and higher Roman Empire as well. The collection is used for teaching purposes in particular. | Universität Konstanz | | 78 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett des Historischen Instituts, Abt. Alte Geschichte, und des Instituts für Altertumskunde, Abt. Byzantinistik | The collection currently holds c. 1,150 coins, mainly of the Roman Imperial period (Republic 72, Principate 517, Late Antiquity 104), plus a number of Provincial issues of the Roman period (93), and some Celtic, Germanic, and other Greek coins. In 2008, 22 Late Roman coins and 285 Byzantine ones of the Krengel collection were purchased. | Universität Köln | | 665 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Mannheim | The Coin Collection of the Chair for Ancient History at Mannheim University goes back to donations by the late Prof Dr Elfriede Höhn and Prof Dr Heinrich Chantraine. The collection consists of 126 ancient, predominantly Roman coins. Thanks to the special interest of Prof Höhn, the collection has a strong emphasis on portraits of imperial women. | Universität Mannheim | | 101 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Münster | The coin collection of the Archaelogical Museum of Münster University consists of more than 5,500 objects covering all historical periods in antiquity: Greek coins (of the archaic, classical and hellenistic periods), coins of the Roman Republic and empire, Civic and provincial coins of the Imperial period, and Byzantine ones. | Universität Münster | | 784 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Passau | The Numismatic Collection of the Professorship for Ancient History at the University of Passau contains 377 coins, covering nearly the whole of ancient Numismatic History, from the Archaic Age of Greece to Late Antiquity and the Byzantine Age, with a focus on the coins of the Roman emperors. The beginning of the collection is connected with Prof. Dr. H. Wolff, who was holder of the chair for Ancient History from 1980 to 2006. His successor, Prof. Dr. O. Stoll (since 2007), was able to purchase and acquire additional coins, so that the collection reached its contemporary content in 2015. The Professorship is – due to missing financial aid by the university – not able to purchase additional coins. | Universität Passau | | 219 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Rostock | The Academic Coin Cabinet of the University of Rostock was founded in the year 1794, at the instigation of the outstanding orientalist Oluf Gerhard Tychsen (1734–1815) and the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, Friedrich Franz II. Thanks to the legacy built by Tychsen, complemented with numerous later acquisitions, Baron Erhard von Nettelbladt (1792–1663), responsible for the Cabinet as the librarian of the University, was able to enlarge the collection from 6’500 to no less than 27’000 entries. Several inventory settlements and many losses caused by World War II resulted in the dissolution of the Coin Cabinet in 1944. Consequently, the section containing the Ancient, Byzantine and Oriental coins, as well as a number of modern coins, were assigned to the corpus of the Archaeological Collection of Rostock University. The Archaeological Collection of Rostock University has its seat at the Heinrich-Schliemann-Institute for Ancient Studies. It can be described as a typical academic research and study collection, mostly used for academic teaching. Moreover, there are permanent exhibition rooms, opened to the public once per week. Apart from the coins, the collection contains archaeological objects of the Egyptian, Greek and Roman periods, as well as a number of plaster casts of Greek and Roman sculptures. In 2008 the collection was significantly increased, as the inventory of the Collection of Antiquities of Greifswald University was added, which by that time was given over as a permanent loan. To date, the collection of coins consists of c. 4’000 Ancient and Byzantine, c. 800 Oriental and c. 4’500 modern coins and medals. In addition, there is a small but rather important collection of fish glue casts taken in the time of Tychsen from a number of Islamic coins. A small part of the coin collection is integrated into the permanent collection open to the public. The coins kept in the deposit are mainly used for academic teaching. They offer the opportunity to learn and practice the methods of numismatics by using original objects. Furthermore, the coins are regularly used in the context of workshops held by the working group ‘School & Museum’. Up to date, only the Roman and Byzantine coins have been investigated scientifically. These coins were published by Silke Burmeister in 1999. Since 2019 we are adding, to begin with, the data of c. 900 Greek and Roman coins to the NUMiD database. More will follow. | Universität Rostock | | 422 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Trier | In 2017 Karl-Heinz Zimmer, a water engineer based in Trier, donated his collection of ancient coins to Trier University. This collection, which is now kept with the departement of Ancient History, consists of a total of 515 coins. It was built over several decades and in cooperation with local cultural heritage authorities. The collection does have a local focus, as most of the coins had been struck in the Roman mint of ancient Trier and/or were found in Trier proper, respectively. Many coins hence do have a known findspot; remarkable e.g. are many coins found at the Roman bridge in Trier (Moselbrücke) or those deposited at the Trierweiler temple. The collections thus does not only provide an imporatent teaching tool during University courses, but does represent scientific value in its own right. | Universität Trier | | 200 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett des Instituts für Klassische Archäologie | With over 20,000 objects, the coin collection of the Institute of Classical Archaeology at the University of Tübingen is among the largest university collections of ancient coins in Germany; it is also one of the oldest, its history spanning more than 220 years. Today, the collection contains c. 8,000 Greek, 7,000 Roman, 2,000 Modern coins, and more than 3,000 medals and various other numismatic objects. The collection is made up by three major bequests: Tux (1798), von Schäffer (1888), and Hommel (1975). As such, it mirrors the history of coin collecting from the late Baroque period to the twentieth century. The most prestigious items of the collection are on permanent display at the Museum of the University of Tübingen MUT Alte Kulturen. | Universität Tübingen | | 1350 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett des Instituts für Numismatik und Geldgeschichte | The Department of Numismatics and Monetary History at the University of Vienna is the only autonomous university department of this orientation in Europe. At the same time, it is the only place where it is possible to study the subject of numismatics and monetary history in its full methodological and technical variety, covering all eras from antiquity to the modern period. Due to its expertise on coins, medals, monetary symbols and monetary equivalents covering all periods and cultures, as well as the associated political, economic, social and cultural questions, the field of numismatics and monetary history is firmly established in numerous key research areas of the Faculty. Furthermore, it significantly contributes to the basic research profile of the University of Vienna, especially in the fields of classical studies and medieval research. The range of courses extends from extension curricula for students in bachelor’s programmes to a doctoral programme in numismatics. The Department offers around 30 hours of numismatic teaching per week, and provides various networking opportunities, as well as useful complimentary courses for almost all degree programmes. Through its extensive study collection, specialised library, catalogue collection and the “Numismatische Zentralkartei” (NZK, numismatic central catalogue) – including around 1.5 million coins documented in photographs - the Department offers working opportunities that are unique in the world and that international academics regularly make use of. The Department has an extensive national and international network with all institutions working in the field of numismatics – not least through its graduates. In many ways, the Department’s influence extends beyond the University and academia. The Department regularly offers summer schools that are targeted at international early stage researchers. | Universität Wien | | 1341 | |
| Das Digitale Münzkabinett der Universität Würzburg | The Coin cabinet in the Martin von Wagner Museum (Würzburg University Museum). The Julius-Maximilians-University of Würzburg (JMU) holds about 1.200 coins, medals and para-numismatic objects from the 7th BCE to modern times with a focus on Greek and Roman coins. Due to the near complete destruction in World War II the coin cabinet in the Martin von Wagner Museum (MvW) is mainly build by donations after 1945 and by a few selected acquisitions. The most important of those donations is the Coll. H. Wellhöfer – c. 400 classical Greek coins with an emphasis on iconography and aesthetics. | Universität Würzburg | | 338 | |
