Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I did not receive the box with the otho till last Wednesday, when all came safe, though a week after time. I am intirely of your opinion, & so is Mr. Ben Crow, who has been all this week with us, that it has been fabricated out of a Nero, the remains of the head plainly belonging to that Emperor, & the first letters, IMP : M : OTHO, being very unequal & disproportionate; the reverse seems to be purposely defaced in order to disguise it the better. The other, on which Mr. Little seems to sett as great a value as upon his OTHO, is a cast counterfiet of a medal of Augustus, & had it been genuine, might have been worth 30 or 40s. I would not give 6d. for either of them, so, having an opportunity of returning them to Mr. Collins, at Stanford, by Mr. Revely, who setts out for London in the York stage next Monday, (if the roads are passable,) I have desired him to deliver them there. ... The head upon the rev. of the silver medal is not of C: MARIVS, but DIANA, as is evident by the quiver behind her shoulder.'
