Inside were 19 coins with the coat of arms of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. In addition to coins, including ORT, Grosh, Poltorak, there were also two fibulas, an earring and a fragment of a ring.

The finds were transferred to the Begoml Museum of folk glory. A more precise definition of coins will take place during the study. Among the finds, experts identified the ORT of Sigismund III of the Vase, minted in 1622.
