Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'There was lately a very noble collection of coins presented to the Bodley Library by one Mr Raye formerly Consul of Smyrna, which I am told had been collected in those parts by his Cook. I have not yet seen them but am told they are in number about 2000.' (Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Smith 51, f.23; Burnett 2020b, p. 599)
