description A common problem that occurs when interpreting finds of perforated Roman coins is whether they had been perforated in Roman times or later. Hence, the specimens that originate from an undisturbed archaeological context, as is the case with finds from the Viminacium necropolis of Više Grobalja, are indispensable.

The analysis of the context of the finds, in some specimens, allows the confident assertion that they had constituted a part of jewellery.
