Adolf Senckler of Cologne. Prussian Artillery Major, later Lieutenant Colonel.

Senckler also owned 22 gold coins of the Gustorf hoard, which were auction in 1847. He was also the author of some numsimatic publications.

Coins were acquired for the Münzkabinett Berlin with the help of the Agent general Pasenau of Magdeburg from Senckler's bequest in 1862.

Several hundret of his coins were given by Senckler to Dr Elberling.
