Between 2016 and 2021 the Slovak National Museum – Historical museum, together with the National Bank of Slovakia – Museum of coins and medals, acquired 392 numismatic objects from Muráň Castle. A hoard of 360 Hungarian Ferdinand I denarii, hidden around 1554, was found directly on castle grounds. Ottoman penetration into the area may have precipitated the creation of the hoard. Besides the cache, finds at Muráň also include 21 other numismatic artefacts such as Hungarian denarii and their forgeries, Czech and Polish-Silesian coins, two interesting Nuremberg counting tokens and one reliquary with the letters MAR.
