AB The Stora Brunneby hoard of 17 solidi with a terminus post quem of 451 is presented and analysed as a preliminary result of the LEO Project. Its type composition and the coins' average weight are quite unusual and support that he Stora Brunneby hoard is likely to have been accumulated over some time, with at least two generations contributing to it in the first half of the 5th century. The hoard may be the result of a series of payments especially related to quinquennial vota, which should perhaps be seen as occasions for the rotation of military units between Scandinavia and Italy.
