Sažetak
Territory of the Osijek city is rish with traces of the continuous life ever-since prehistory till nowdays. In the series of archeological spots on this territory, the multistratified spot, i. e. warf located in the Donji grad of the Osijek city, takes an important place. In 1961 on this very spot, the Museum of Slavonia has supervised the constructioning works on the passage for road on eastern end of the spot. Unfortunatelly, the Musem has not been informated on the works, so it was possible to follow only final works and save just archeological material of the lateral sides of the excavation. General characteristic of the works is that beside architectural residues of the roman house bases, there have been found very heterogeneous archeological objects from the Bronze Age to the early IV century, and among those 53 pieces of roman coins too. Due to the circumstances under which the same was found, the most of those were found on the ejected soil of the disturbed roman province culture layer inside the Sectors VII and VIII (56,6%); furthermore those accidentaly invented which workers on constructioning collected on their own initiative (32,1%), and the least of the items were doscovered in certain sectors and excavation layers (11,3%). The collection consists of relatively well unscathed roman coins dated from the late century I B. C. up to late century IV A. D. The first from the collection is the item of denarium legion Marc Antonius coined in the year 31 B. C. and among the last ones are examples of the AES types from 364 up to 367 — the reign of the imperators Valentinian I and Valens.
