At a workshop on August 28, 2025 in Bern, the new DISCO database – Digital Inventory of Swiss Coin Finds – was presented.
The database will be the central tool of the Inventory of Coin Finds from Switzerland for processing, evaluating and cataloging coin finds from Switzerland and Liechtenstein, and will be available both as linked open research data and in print.
… and of course Kris Lockyear for hosting us and Murray Andrews for all his help! We enjoyed two days of excellent papers, inspiring discussions and networking, as well as a wonderful trip to the Roman baths at Welwyn and Verulamium.
Thank you also to all the participants. You made the 12th Meeting of ECFN a great success! Now on to Bari next year!
