The subject of the study is the method for preparing flans for Celtic Bratislava-type tetradrachms. The study of the issue is based on an evaluation of an assemblage of Late La Tène technical ceramics and an assessment of a sample of numismatic material with preserved production traces. The analysis of the technical ceramics from Bratislava leads to the conclusion that ceramic moulds were used for dosing metal – the production of ingots for the needs of coinage and jewellery production and perhaps for casting flans for small Celtic coins. Macroscopic observations of silver tetradrachms identified the presence of multiple types of defects in the shape and surface of castings (collapse, mechanical damage, protrusions, lumps, etc.). The results of the study provide a framework for a technological interpretation. Two methods for producing flans can be considered – casting in an open mould with the surface of the metal exposed (flan mould) and the lost-wax casting technique with a tree model (ceramic shell mould).

The study addresses the creation and early development of the ornamental garden in Mýtna Street in Bratislava. The site was originally a smaller garden on the outskirts of the Blumentál suburb (at that time), located in the vicinity of a road leading to Rača. The first stage of the garden documented in a drawing shows the main axis intersecting the centre of the courtyard and a simple symmetric composition of three fields of vegetation lined by tree alleys. Based on an analysis and comparison of written sources and plans, we assume the garden was founded in the second half of the 1770s. A re-evaluation of the name Esterházy Garden is based on reliable information from historical sources designating the archbishop’s administrator Štefan Ormosdy as the owner.

The study addresses the localisation of the hoard of Celtic coins discovered on the land of S. Ormosdy in a suburb of Bratislava in 1776. Written reports on the find from the period (J. H. Eckhel, K. G. von Windisch) and their comparison with information on S. Ormosdy’s land ownership history in historical-topographic material, church registers, official town books and historical maps are used for the purpose of determining the location. A critical analysis of preserved sources clearly indicates that the hoard was situated in the Blumentál suburb, specifically in the space demarcated by today’s Belopotockého, Mýtna, Povraznícka and Žilinská streets. From the perspective of the structure of the Late La Tène settlement agglomeration, the area belonged to the ‘satellite settlement’ near Námestie slobody (Freedom Square), where three additional hoard of Celtic coins were found in 1927, 1937 and 1942.
