- Abstract
The hoard of Arab dirhams (58 extant), the latest of which were coined in the middle of the 970-s, was discovered in 1947 near the village of Volobuevo in the environs of Kursk. All the coins were cut into circular shape to fi t the weight norms of 0.7 and 1 grams. The analysis of the hoard showed that the coins of the higher weight norm were cut mainly from dirhams of the 930-s – 950-s, and those of the lesser weight norm mainly from dirhams of the 960-s – 970-s. The fi rst group were more often cut from the central part of the dirhams, and those of the second group – from the side.
