The Avar gold and silver pieces, 120 plus items decorated with stags, could fetch over 1 million dollars at Sotheby’s December 14 sale in London. Origins remain murky with provenance tracing to Albania’s Vrap and prior private German holdings. Museums show interest and German scholars urge national purchase.
