Comment

M. Glavinić in 1889 gifted the museum in Sarajevo 10 silver coins of Trajan with the note that they originate from "Nona" (modern Nin). The same person in 1891 procured for the museum in Zadar 52 silver coins, mostly of Trajan, with the note that they originate from the outskirts of "Nona". It is unclear if they are two separate hoards (or if they are hoards at all, although it is more likely that the initial 10 coins were found together judging by their condition) or if they were part of a single hoard that was dispersed.
