Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'He [Ashmole] had above two hundred antient Roman and Greek coins, all gold. He showed me one with Cicero's head upon it, the reverse was Minerva - this he esteemed a great rarity. He also had a great variety of more modern coins in gold, but his brass ones he lost in the fire of London, which he esteemed a great rarity—more than those of gold he now enjoys.' (Josten 1966, vol. 4, pp. 1726-8; Burnett 2020b, p. 453)
