Abstract	The paper showcases a Roman imperial hoard found in 1930 in Dobrudja region, laying out pieces of information about the discovery, the deposition with museum, the numismatic structure of the deposit, and the political background. The 557 denarii range from Nero to Gordian III, displaying two moments of intensified accretion based on estimated use-wear rates. Although potentially connected to an overarching hoarding horizon occurring in Moesia Inferior and Thrace during the turbulences caused by the Carpic invasions, given the little evidence regarding the find spot the interpretation is limited to general remarks.
