From the numismatic point of view, the settlement in Žehuň is the first site in which a greater volume of monetary circulation is documented in Bohemia. Altogether, 143 coins have been documented. The earlier phase corresponding to LT C is represented by 74 coins including the golden coins of the so-called Bohemian local issues, minted with certainty in Bohemia. A significant finding is the intense circulation of obols, some of which correspond iconographically with the golden Bohemian series. Until recently, silver coinage was only little known in Bohemia. Several examples document coins imported from Moravia or more precisely from the Amber route corridor, confirming thus the trend generally observed in Bohemia. For now there is no comparison for the Žehuň settlement in LT C Bohemia, although many similar sites must have existed. Similarly, Žehuň is the first documented settlement with intense coin circulation in the oppida period (LT D). 69 coins date to this period - there are few golden pieces and the majority of the assemblage consists of silver obols. There are also four imported pieces. In the case of several coin types their origin in Central Bohemia outside the oppida has been confirmed. The Žehuň coin collection radically transforms our views of the role of coinage in Bohemia in both the pre-oppida and the oppida period.
