Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'As to the medal of Constantius Chlorus, which I mentioned, it is not now in my hands; nor can I find either in Mezzabarba or Du Fresne, any such edifice with P L. But in both those noble Authors there are other Reverses belonging to the said Chlorus with the characters P L C which I say as well may be construed Pecunia Londini Cusa, or Lugduni; for we know by much elder british coins (such as yours of Cunobelin), that there were Mint very early, though rude, in this land; and because there is a brass helena (the wife of Chlorus), whose reverse hath on it P L C and Securitas R P. I strengthen my argument that it was coined at London, not at Lyons; yet I am but a guesser, and pretend no more.' (Nichols 1812-1815, vol. 9, p. 762; Burnett 2020b, pp. 372-4)
