Sažetak

Mediaeval follarus from Zadar had been minted during the rule of Louis I of Anjou; today it is rarely found in the area of the Northern Dalmatia. Croatian scientific numismatics disposes of the knowledge of approximately 13 pieces thereof, which belong either to private or to museum collections. This paper offers information on yet another, new find, from the address 8 King Dmitar Zvonimir Street in Zadar. It further discusses the beginnings of minting these coins, and their iconography. It is of rather high relevance who, when and why minted these coins. Special attention has been paid to the activity of Petar de Moneta and his lease of the Royal Chamber for Salt and the Thirtieth as the principal financial administration in Dalmatia. This Chamber supervised a mint that was entrusted with minting communal money from Zadar, but very likely also Hungarian silver royal coins, though there still exists no proof to the latter. Problems related to the mintage of these mediaeval coins from Zadar arose not only from the interpretation of its iconography, but also from the state of study, or rather the number of finds of this money, which equalled up to 20 pieces. The paper describes the so far known exempla kept at museums, and their variations, offering thereby its contribution to a better knowledge of this otherwise only modestly researched topic. All future research should choose this direction regarding these coins and their iconography. This paper has – in its modest fashion – contributed thereto as well.
