The banner of the 18. Lvov Riflemen Battalion (18. LRB) was one of few handed in after the end of the war yet still before dissolution of the Polish Armed Forces in the West. Then the 5th Kresowa Infantry Division, commanded by General Nikodem Sulik, quartered in northern Italy and the 18. LRB in Predappio. In October 1944, in the pursuit after the enemy, the 18. LRB captured this defended by German soldiers town. As a token of gratitude for liberation from occupation, the inhabitants of Predappio decided to honour the 18. LRB by founding a banner and handing it over to the battalion. After due settlements, commandant of the battalion, Lieutenant Colonel Aleksander Florkowski, applied to commandant of the 2. Polish Corps for the permission to accept the banner from the Italians. The ceremony of the deliverance of the banner, in which General Wladyslaw Anders participated, took place in Predappio on the Division's Day - 15 September 1946. On return to England and demobilization of the Polish Armed Forces in the West, the banner of the 18. LRB was transferred to the Polish Institute and General Sikorski Museum in London. The banner was conded to the care of the Board of the 18. LRB Departmental Circle. In 1947 there was an initiative to decorate the banner with the Cross of the Virtuti Militari (Class V), however, its conferment took place only in 1968, during the term of President of Poland within the Polish Government in Exile - August Zaleski. Yet emigrational quarrels and controversies were not to be avoided. Finally the banner was decorated on 1 October 1972.

The number of coin and isolated artefacts treasures in the mo dern period (XVI–XVIII centuries) undergoes, first and foremost, stati stical and hypothetical analyses. In contrast to the early medieval period, coin tre asures found in the Polish land contain coin-shaped gold and silver bullion, bu t not gold bars, the so-called “placki” – pieces of bullion, although items of ev eryday use (trays, jugs, chalices, goblets, gravy-boats, etc.) made of precious met als, often decorated with European coins, can be found. It was not unusual to recast coi ns and medals into medallions and medals in pedants or in decorated belts, whic h were often studded with ancient coins. One has to remember about a specific role of the coin hidden in t he form of a treasure or isolated artefacts. Firstly, it was used as a me ans of payment and its value was regulated by law. In the case of foreign coins in circulation in the Polish territory, legal regulations were replaced by evalu ation tables, which were available to merchants, bankers and all those who officially d ealt with money circulation. The function of the coin as a circular means was also very important. Still, not everybody realizes that the coin fulfilled anothe r vital function – it was a means of accumulation of assets – which seemed essential fr om the point of view of those hiding coin treasures. In the times of econom ic, political and military unrest, it was the most convenient to accumulate mo vable property in the form of coins. The appendix attached to this article contains dishes dated by coin treasures from the discussed period.
