The core of the collection is represented by the stock inherited from the National Antiquities Museum, built during the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century. It has been completed by acquisitions and donations, and especially pieces picked up during archaeological excavations. The most important samples include those from Histria, Dinogetia, Noviodunum, Tropaeum Traiani, Sucidava and Suceava. One can remark the ancient Greek, Geto-Dacian, Republican and imperial Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and Central European mediaeval coins. There is also a considerable collection of European and North-American medals, ponds and pieces associated to the hoard coins (recipients and ornaments). ...There is also a considerable collection of European and North-American medals, ponds and pieces associated to the hoard coins (recipients and ornaments).
