Comment

The hoard was study in two lots. In 1935, when circa 811 coins were bought by the City Museum and 8 more coins were studied in 1994 at the Coin Room of the Library of Romanian Academy. In the case of the first lot, the number is not precisely recorded. There is a discordance between the total number of coins mentioned by the author and the number of coins described in the catalog.
