Notes

  • Note: Found with rich treasure of gold and silver jewelry (see Dalton, Oxus). The numbers above are taken from Bellinger's list, but six obvious or probable forgeries are not included. It has been discussed whether the find was heavily contaminated by addition of extraneous material (Dalton and Regling) or actually constitutes one hoard (Schlumberger)
