Abstract:
This paper examines various aspects of the use of money and coins :
I. Money of account;
II. The importance of coins and of numismatic research;
III. Brief outline of monetary development in Europe (1150–1305);
IV. Coins used and coins produced in Rome;
V. Coins arriving to the Roman Curia: taxes, donations and pilgrims;
VI. Ritual uses of coins and a papal soup.
Written evidence will be compared with the coins actually produced in various mints, and with evidence from finds and hoards. A special attention will be given to the need of a correct identification of coin-names in documents.
