Description:
The discovery of small ores from Aduatuk is linked to the Roman troop movements during the occupation. These are therefore rare in Lower Saxony. While only a few small ores have been found in Kalkriese, 20 pieces were discovered in Wilkenburg near Hanover by 2017. This corresponds to the spectrum of finds from the Roman camp at Anreppen, which is attributed to the early period of the Roman occupation of Germania and thus to Drusus. This find was discovered near Melle in the Osnabrück district.

An extremely rare coin 👍 Perhaps you can tell us something about the Aduatukians.

I believe we have also found the first "Aduatuker" small ore in our area, probably Series III. As soon as I have taken decent photos of it (because unfortunately you can hardly see anything), I will publish them here.
