Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'Upon perusal of Mr. Evelyn’s Numismata, I resolved to conclude with a chapter about our English Coins, from the Conquest to the end of Queen Elizabeth. I have several in my own possession which are not taken notice of either in Speed or Camden; and I doubt not but you have abundantly more. Let me request an account of those which you think most remarkable, with their inscriptions, that I may compare them with my own, and see how far I can encourage our English historians (in future times) to hope for a complete collection of them.' (Evelyn 1697; Hunter 1832, vol. 1, pp. 316-17; Burnett 2020b, p. 869, 897, 904 n. 170)
