Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

[About enquiring about Coronation medals] ‘I enquired of Mr Tanner (an Engraver of the Mint) for the Farthings which you want: he has got (I think) one of each sort, but they are very imperfect, & what is still worse, he says he dont chuse to part with them.’ (Burnett 2020b, p. 1503)
