Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I am afraid too that your character of the Bodleian Cabinet will be excepted to by modern Connoiseurs. The Collection of Coins is numerous, and considerable enough for the time when it was purchased by Archbishop Laud, 120 years ago; but in truth is but a mean stock, if compared with some modern Collections. My design in printing the Catalogue was only to promote the study of Medals among our youth, by giving them a system of the science, and perhaps one time or other it may have its effect, though not at present.' (Nichols 1817-1858, vol. 4, p. 451; Burnett 2020b, p.414)
