Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I have enclosed not only the Weights of the Silver and Gold you desired, but have added four-score, which is my whole stock before the Imperial: And cannot but observe, that the fairest and most perfect come nearest that No. 74. inscribed ARG. PUB. (for Argentum Publicum) viz. two Penny Weight, ten Grains. Those which fall most short are such as have laid many centuries in a corroding Earth, as those found in the Skirts of the Moors, betwixt Yorkshire and Lancashire. ... [a list of weights of coins in Thoresby's collection follows] ' (Smith 1729, pp. 34-8)
