VOJVODA Institute of Archaeology, Belgrade A SCATTERED HOARD OF ROMAN COINS IN THE TERRITORY OF SERBIA (UNKNOWN SITE 2)* Abstract: The scattered hoard of coins from an unknown site in the territory of Ser- bia consists of 17 antoniniani spanning the period from Philip I to Volusianus. The preserved number of specimens and the composition of the hoard do not enable us to determine the date when it was deposited. The unknown discovery location presents an additional difficulty, because there is no possibility to connect it with other well documented hoards from this territory. For these reasons, the scattered hoard, marked as Unknown Site 2, cannot be viewed as a reliable historical source, except for the fact that it testified about the existence of one more monetary find and contributed to information about the coins in circulation in the middle of the 3 rd century. Key words: Roman Empire, scattered coin hoards, Serbia At the end of 1951, 17 antoniniani from a hoard in the territory of Serbia were acquired for the National Museum in Belgrade. 1 The preserved part consists of 17 * The study results from the projects: Roman Coin Hoards from Serbia (B.
