The bronze hoard was discovered on the territory of Mîndrești village, Telenești district, in 1968.

The assemblage reflects a zone of contact and interaction where metallic forms of different origins and traditions circulated and were integrated into the repertoire of local communities. Chronologically, the bronze hoard of Mîndrești is attributed to the Early Hallstatt period - HaA1, being dated to 1200-1100 BC.
Deponierung Alexanders der Guten in Belgorod-Dnestrovsk
Tyragetia, serie nouă, vol. I [XVI], nr. 2, Istorie. Muzeologie Chișinău, 2007
In der Artikel ist ein genug bekannte, doch kaum überprufte Schatzfund von Alexander der Gute (1400-1432) vorgestellt. Die späteste entdeckte Münze lasst uns diesen Schatz mit der ersten unabhängigen Regierungszeit von Stefan dem II zu datieren. Diese Datierung ist später als schon gewusst. Es ist fast sicher, dass das keine spezielle Deponierung war, trotz einer Geldkatze mit den Münzen, die in der Nähe vor den Haupttoren der Festung verloren wurde. Auch eine Kataloge der moldauischen numismatischen Funden des 15. Jahrhunderts aus Grabungen und Sammelungen der Periode 1970-1983 wurde veröffentlicht, die in dem Archäologischen Museum in Odessa sich befindet.
