Summary

A hoard of originally more than 200 antoniniani of which 147 were split up between different museums and a private owner. 116 of these were published in detail by Laser in 1972 (114 of these could be documented de visu by M. Schlapke in 2015) and FMRD gives a full list of all 147 coins. Unfortunately, the FMRD list is faulty. The mistakes are difficult to correct, as the coins are not all accessible any more today. As a result, all coins ever documented have been listed here, with three FMRD entries having their quantity set to 'zero' (0), as no matching coin exists among the ones seen by M. Schlapke. Surviving coins range from Valerian to Postumus. No trace of a container could be seen.
