Talk by Dr Molly Proud, Research Intern
Aberdeen has an astonishing five medieval coin hoards on record, all found in a small area of the city centre, including one of the best documented, discovered in Upperkirkgate in 1886. Rare and remarkable, these buried treasures present unique insights into a bygone era. Dr Molly Proud explores what has been found in the hoards, why they were hidden and what they can tell us about the past.
