Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'… I hope you have had yr Coins home, & shall rejoyce if I can help you finish so good a Beginning. I gave this day a Guinea for a Portculis Crown of Queen Elizabeth. Persons are Idly Extravagant & there is no coming at particular peices but on such Terms. I was last night with a Clubb of Antiquaries, but I said nothing abt Mr Welham’s collection, & am exceedingly enjoyed they are got into yr good hands, & I pray you to secure \all the rest of/ the Gold. I can in May 20th get half a crown for every thing before James the Firsts Time.'
