Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I wish my Carausius had been a silver one, you should most certainly have had it. I should be glad to know what copper ones you have of him, with their reverses. I could hear of no other among the Oakham coins but Edward, Edgar, & Edmond. I lately pickt up a copper Carausius, but I think it is too plain to be genuine ; it is a small coin — the reverse is PAX : AUG. I lately met with a medal of the Emperor Domitian, the reverse MONETA : AUG. I want sadly to find out the Rex Gertis & Nicholaus Sarctus on my Saxon Penig. If you can meet with two such antiquated names, pray give me some particulars of them.'

(Lukis 1882-1887, vol. 1 p. 479)
