Descrição: In May, 1971, the museum in Alba Iulia acquired the numismatic collection of Professor Alexandru Borza. Analyzing the Roman Imperial coins from this collection, we noticed certain characteristics of some of the parts that caught our attention such as their gilding and the fact that they were used in a necklace, as on each piece, one, two or three lugs were glued. These things have shown us that the coins came from a greater hoard. This monetary fragment consisting of 23 silver parts (17 denarii and 6 antoniniani) of which 3 denarii emitted by Septimius Severus, one coin emitted by Septimius Severus: Caracalla (Caesar), 1 coin by Septimius Severus: Caracalla (Augustus), 3 denarii emitted by Elagabalus, one coin by Elagabalus - Iulia Soaemias, 6 denarii by Severus Alexander, 2 denarii by Severus Alexander: Iulia Mamaea, 4 antoniniani by Gordian III and two antoniniani by Philip I. Thus, we can say that this money fragment falls into the second group of completed hoard of coin from Philip and hidden, perhaps during the reign of Trajan Decius.
