Bulgaria Customs' agents prevented Wednesday the illegal export of 19 antique coins and an antique bracelet, the Customs' press center reported.

The valuable objects have been discovered at the Kalotina border checkpoint. They were found in the possession of two Bulgarian nationals traveling on the regular Bulgaria-Italy bus line.

The coins and the bracelet would be further evaluated and examined by experts, but preliminary information shows that they are, most likely, antiques, with historical and archaeological value.
