Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
-Letter of 20 July 1789 (from Amsterdam): On 20 July 1789, the negotiations were drawing to a close: van Damme accepted three Roman Imperial aurei and two rare denarii (Didia Clara and Pertinax with reverse CONSECRATIO) in return for his book; he also demanded the Choix and two replacement copies of Eckhel’s 1786 publications, because he had lost the two copies that he had originally been given, and asked Eckhel to send all these things in advance. Upon receipt, he promised to send not only the book, but “aussi nostre pourtrait, pour un memoire” (Vienna, Kunsthistorisches Museum, MK 71; Dekesel - Dekesel-De Ruyck 2022, p. 588, note 47)
