Biography
[edit]Born Vera Jammer on 15 August 1923 in Hamburg, she was awarded her PhD from the University of Hamburg. Entitled "Die Anfänge der Münzprägung im Herzogtum Sachsen. (10. und 11. Jahrhundert)", it was supervised by Walter Hävernick (de) and published in 1952. By 1951 she had begun work in the numismatic department at the Museum for Hamburg History.[1] In 1954 Hatz became part of an international collaborative project 'Corpus Nummorum Saeculorum IX-XI qui in Suecia Reperti Sunt' alongside Peter Berghaus, Michael Dolley, Ulla S. Linder-Welin and Brita Malmer.[2] A further collaborator was her husband Gert Hatz.[3][4] She was also known for her work on the Otto-Adelheid coinage.[5][6]
In 1988 the festschrift Commentationes numismaticae 1988: Festgabe für Gert und Vera Hatz was published.[7] The volume recognised the important contributions both made to numismatics, and in particular coinage of the Viking world.[3]
In 2013 a medal was designed by Peter-Götz Güttler, posthumously commemorating Hatz's 90th birthday.[8]
