The find was donated to the Numismatic Department by László Torday, who ob­tained it during the nineteen thirties. It contained 594 bronze coins, there were a Greek and a Byzantine coin among them too. In spite of this the collection is a unit, these two must have been added to the collection at a later date.

The closing note of the Numismatic Department concerning the whole item "Fake imitations of Roman coins from the area of Brigetio". Most of the coins are su­baeratus, potin denarius, or antoninianus. From the very brief Cohen or RIC identification and the "cf. " note it does not become clear whether these can be considered contemporary imitations or not. Elmer, G . : NZ 26(1933), 58.
