'The more distinctly I peruse your Lordships most Accurate Observations on our English Silver Coins, the more I am ravished with them, they give me that Satisfaction in some scruples, yt I had tho’t had been impossible to have rec’d either from the most criticall Author living, or most Judicious of former Ages. [long list of many of RT’s coins with notes].'
