Summary/Abstract: The paper contains two critically edited lists of household items, clothing and valuables of Prince Miloš in his court in Bucharest. The edited documents are kept in the State Archives of Serbia, collection “Gifts and Purchases”, shelfmark k. 94, No 155 and k. 94, No 156. According to the dates explicitly stated in the documents, the inventory was compiled between 13 March and 31 July 1852. This is a significant historical source that indirectly testifies to the wealth of Prince Miloš and his habits while he was an émigré. The comparison with the earlier inventories of personal and household items of Prince Miloš (1824, 1839, 1843), which have been published, sheds light on changes that his property underwent.
