If any Saxon Pieces come in your way, or Roman Medals of Gold, Silver or Brasse, be pleased to buy them for me and I shall very thankfully repay what ye lay out for them. It is like the Country people who may happen some times to finde them may be ready to make offer of such as they chance to light on after they once know that ye will be their Merchant. This is a way whereby I have procured a good many of those in my Collection. ... Pray give my Service to Mr Lhwyd when ye write to him, Archdeacon Nicolson tels me he met with some Ancient Coyns in Cornwall and I believe he will look after such where ever he travels, and what duplicats he can bring may be bestowed at his Return.'
