The Hugo Wennagel Hoard, August 25/26, 1941–December 7, 2003

Abstract

A hoard of a German Christian living in Tel Aviv was concealed on August 25/26, 1941,
and, with the hoarder’s assistance, was uncovered in 2003. The process by which the
coins may have been collected is considered; the circumstances of the deposit are
reported, the contents and nature of the hoard are described, and resulting numismatic
observations are made.
