I guess the Echzell hoard was misinterpreted. These coins were probably not made by Germanic people of the settlement where they were found. Instead, they accumulated the coins as raw material to make buckles and fibulae etc. Barbarous radiates were produced in vast quantities in Gaul and perhaps Britain during the currency crisis of the 270s. These coins had next to no material value for Romans, but were valuable for Germans and other &quot;barbarians&quot;, who lacked access to metals like bronze and copper.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
