On January 6,1986 an archaeological team, consisting of Bogdan Nikolov, Spas Mashov and Plamen Ivanov from the County Historical Museum(Regional Historical Museum) in Vratsa discovered a second half, consisting of 100 silver and gilded silver vessels. [3][4]

It consists of 165 receptacles, including 108 phiales, 55 jugs and 3 goblets.[2] The objects are silver with golden gilt on some of them with total weight of more than 20 kilograms (44 lb). The treasure is an invaluable source of information for the life of the Thracians, due to the variety of motifs in the richly decorated objects. It is dated back to the 5th–4th centuries B.C.
