Eva Kolníková (née Eva Valentová, born 20 April 1935[1]) is a Slovak numismatist. She specialises in the Celtic coinage of Slovakia, as well as the importance of coinage with relation to Roman-Germanic interactions.[1] [2] [3] She has had marked success in disentangling the complex relationships between the coinages and publishing them accessibly.[4] [5] Research projects have included the cataloguing of coin finds from Němčice nad Hanou,[6] [7] the Bratislava Castle hoard, amongst others.
