Predmet doktorske disertacije je monetarna cirkulacija provincije Priobalne Dakije, koja je, nakon napuštanja provincije Dakije i sprovedenih administrativnih reformi, postala pogranična oblast Carstva. Provincija, sa velikom vojnom posadom na dunavskoj granici i značajnim brojem vojnika i administrativnog osoblja u unutrašnjosti bogatoj rudama, bila je ujedno pogranična i rudarska, te se time razlikovala od susednih pokrajina. Obuhvaćen je period od kraja 3. veka, kada je formirana provincija Priobalna Dakija, do sredine 5. veka, odnosno do hunske najezde 441/443. godine, kada se stanovništvo iz straha povlači u utvrđenja ili napušta teritoriju provincije. Analizom monetarne cirkulacije utvrđeno je da vrednosti novčanog opticaja u Priobalnoj Dakiji nisu drastično odudarale od susednih provincija, ali tokom određenih perioda dolazi do skokova u novčanoj cirkulaciji, što je povezano sa povećanim prisustvom vojnih trupa. Ipak ovi skokovi u opticaju nisu imali kontinuitet i nisu doveli do stalnog povećanja monetarnog opticaja. Analiza distribucije novca pokazala je da u trenucima krize izazvanim varvarskim upadima i razaranjima dolazi do otežane distribucije novca u provinciju. U slučajevima kada je dotok novca iz nadležne kovnice prekinut, njenu ulogu preuzima druga kovnica. Generalni zaključci ukazuju da su novčana kretanja u Iliriku od kraja 3. do sredine 5. veka bila stabilna, sa postojanom cirkulacijom novca. Geostrateške karakteristike, privredni razvoj i resursi provincija imali su uticaja na novčana kretanja, ali su efekti dolazili do izražaja u kraćim vremenskim periodima povezanim sa specifičnim događajima. Novčana kretanja u Iliriku bila su u skladu sa opštim monetarnim trendovima Carstva, dok su odstupanja bila prisutna u mikroregijama.

The subject of doctoral dissertation is the monetary circulation in the province of Dacia Ripensis, which, after the abandonment of the province of Dacia and the administrative reforms, became a border region of the Empire. The province, with a large military garrison on the Danube frontier and a significant number of soldiers and administrative personnel in the interior, rich in ore, was both a border and mining province, thus differing from its neighboring provinces. The dissertation covers the period from the end of the 3rd century, when the province was formed, to the mid-5th century, specifically the Hun invasions of 441/443 AD, when the population retreated to fortifications or abandoned the province. The analysis of monetary circulation determined that the values of coinage in Dacia Ripensis did not significantly deviate from neighboring provinces. However, during certain periods, there were spikes in the circulation, linked to the increased presence of military troops. However, these spikes were not continuous and did not result in permanent increases in circulation. The analysis of coin distribution showed that during crises caused by barbarian invasions, the distribution was hindered. In cases where the flow of coinage from the main mint was interrupted, another mint often took over its role. The general conclusion indicates that monetary movements in Illyricum from the late 3rd to the mid-5th century were stable. Geostrategic features, economic development, and province resources influenced monetary movements, but effects were visible in shorter periods connected to specific events. Monetary movements in Illyricum were aligned with general Empire trends, though deviations were present in microregions.
