| Aanvullende informatie |
The Regenbogenschüsselchen — "rainbow cups" in German — earned their name from the folklore surrounding their discovery: farmers plowing fields across Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg believed the small, dish-shaped gold pieces appeared where rainbows touched the earth. The Vindelici, a Celtic tribal group centered in what is now southern Germany, produced these struck coins without ever developing a coinage tied to a centralizing political authority, making attribution to specific mints or rulers largely impossible.
The quarter-stater fraction was the workhorse denomination of this tradition, likely facilitating trade along routes connecting the Alpine passes to the Danube corridor.
