Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'The most valuable part of it [Ralph Thoresby's collection] is his medalls, which are chiefly Romane and Saxon, and a good collection of English coyns, and occasional medalls from the Conquest to this time. His bookes are alsoe valuable and prety numerouse; and indeed it is not to be wondered at, since the foundation of this collection was my Lord Fairfaxe’s medalls and his library, which were purchased by Mr. Thoresby’s father; to both which there has since been made considerable additions.' (Turner 1835, pp. 221-2, letter 90; Burnett 2020b, p. 857)
