The Gordian Africanus in silver if true are generaly sold for 3 or 4ll a peece, and so artificially counterfeited that one must have a very discerning and accustomed eye to medals not to be imposed on. [talks of difficulty of procuring rare families in Patin…]. As to the numbers yo^r Lord^shp takes notice of on the denarius of the family Calpurnia XXXXIII (the like of which are observable on some of the denarij of the family’s of Marcia, Maria, & Norbana) it is not certain what they signifie, but some coniecture the figures denote the number of years since the establishing of some colony’s by those family’s. … The Brutus R. Eid Mart with y^e Pileum and the Pugiones if it was mine is a false one and as such I parted with it to yo^r Lord^shp for a true one is valued at least 4ll and that was rated at 2s: 6d. I have several modern medals with their frames that I design to dispose of shortly if yo^r Lord^shp would have of them [and if you would be?] pleased to let me know it for till I have yo^r Lord^shps resolutions about them they shall not be parted with, being very ambitious of lodging any part of my collection with a person for whom I have so great and due esteem.'
