The coins minted at Toulouse from 840 onward bearing the names of Pippin II of Aquitania and Charles the Bald are found in many collections and are common in numismatic auctions. As a consequence, they are quite familiar to numismatists, for whom it is well-known that most of them originate from a hoard found at Auzeville (Haute-Garonne) in the late 19th century. In spite of this fame, little is known about this hoard and no complete study of the issues minted at Toulouse has been undertaken since Georges Pierfitte in 1933. This paper aims at filling this lack. In the first part are presented unpublished data from archive search. In the second part, groups of coins originating from the hoard identified in three public collections serve as a basis for a pluridisciplinary study of those coinages It allows a better understanding of the organization of coin minting at Toulouse whilst the Carolingian territory was splitting up.
