Un tezaur ce include solidi de la Marcianus şi Leon / A hoard including solidi of the emperors Marcianus and Leo

  • Subiect: This brief note is focused on the problems raised by a group of seven ancient gold coins attached in a modern bracelet: 6 of them are solidi issued by Marcianus (1) and Leo (5). The compact chronological structure of the group, the fact that the solidi are all from the Constantinopolis mint and the ones from Leo are all the same issue (RIC 605), as well as the scarcity of Marcianus and Leo gold issues in the north-Balkans area suggests that we are in the presence of a hoard or a fragment of a hoard composed of 6 coins from the 5th century AD. The gold piece of Constantin IX is probably a later addition to this group, done by the jeweler who produced the bracelet.
