KENOM coin portal accessible to everyone
Minister Anke Spoorendonk officially opened the coin cabinet on Monday and dam the DFG project as a “contribution to social history”. The following founding partners presented the project publicly:
- Archaeological Institute of the University of Göttingen

KENOM is a best practice example of cooperative collaboration . The inventory is impressive and covers not only a considerable historical range but also very different types of coins or means of payment. Whether ancient or oriental coins, snails, medals or emergency money – you can find every form of historical means of payment in the numismatic database.
A short contribution to the official press conference in the Kiel State Library can be found in the NDR media library. Broadcast in the Schleswig-Holsteinische Magazin on May 11, 2015 from minute 18:10.
