Abstract: The article discusses a treasure of silver coins found in the village of Bibiyani, Lerik region of the Republic of Azerbaijan. The hoard is dominated by silver thalers of the feudal states of Germany. The earliest of them was minted in 1543, and the latest in 1602. Apparently, the treasure was buried in the first quarter of the 17th century. These coins ended up on the territory of Azerbaijan as a result of the intensified trade of Western European countries with the Safavid state along the Volga-Caspian route, which led to the influx of silver thalers into Azerbaijan.
Key words: National Museum of History of Azerbaijan, numismatics, hoard, Western European thalers, trade along the Volga-Caspian route.
