68 Ancient Greek silver coins were discovered two days ago by a retired police officer in the Romanian village of Radomirești, 120km west of Bucharest and 40km north of the Bulgarian border.

They bear the inscription “MAKEDONON FIRST” and are perfectly decorated with oak branches, Infognomon reported.

The silver coins were handed over to the police department and will be sent to the Ministry of Culture to have the authentication verified and time of minting.

This kind of coins is already on display at the Amphipolis Archaeological Museum in Greece.
