If there are any particular coins you want let me know them, & depend upon it I will get them for you, if possible, without shrinking your purse or mortgaging your estate. There is a very fine medal of Domitian's in my neighbourhood, as plain a coin as ever I saw. I think they are common, but I look upon it as valuable because it is so perfect. I have lately added to mine a very good coin of Claudius Gothicus, another of Julius Crispus, Arcadius, Macrinus, Delmatius, Julia Maesa, Diva Paulina, Maximianus, Maximinus, Licinius, Maxentius, Bonosius, Allectus, Carus ; these are all copper ; Claudius, Carausius, Valentinianus, Constans, Pertinax, Antoninus Armeniacus — these are all silver. I have, besides, 3 silver British coins ; the one by the horse & the chalice on the reverse seems to be one of those which in the Magna Britannia, vol. iv., I p. 412, carries the name of Gallena or Wallingford; the other is indisputably one of Cunobeline's, with his head on it, & the word Cun : very plain; the reverse is a military with a long cross in his hand, as mentioned in Cambden, the other is mentioned by Cambden, with a face on one side, with the word Ono on the other, a sort of maze with a cross at the 4 entrances. I have a Nigrinianus, Honorius, Theodora, Julia Helena, Cæsonia, & one of Constantius, coined at York, with his apotheosis on it. I have a medal of Trajan's, I think, with the reverse — FIDES : EXERCITVVM. I have several very old ones that I wish I could ' have your opinion on. The Governour lately made me a present , of a Roman lady's ring ; it is of wire, twisted ; there is no stone i set in it, & where it is joined & the stone should be, there is a kind of cavity. I wrote to you some time ago to desire you would consult Sir Andrew Fountayn's Numism.
