'Mr George Ballard of Campden in Gloucestershire was born in 1706. He told me last night that among Mr Graves’s coins bought by Roger Gale Esq. were several gold ones. Some of the Romans were spurious. He had a brass one of Julius Caesar, which Mr Ballard met with at London, where he had now been on foot, but I do not take it to be genuine.'
