Introduction: In this paper we discuss coins from the 6th and 7th centuries, passing over the Pomeranian finds from the beginning of the 6th century. A small series of coins (up to 20 items; up to 14 locations) comes from the period that we are interested in. The coinage of Justinian I is clearly dominant (up to 13 items), coins of later rulers constitute issues of Justin II (2 items), Maurikios (1 item) and Heraclius (3 items); chronology of one coin has not been determined.
