Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'I my self have now in my Eye above three hundred coins, which will come for less than a penny apiece, and I am told that there is a Pertinax in Great Brass among them, which is more than I can buy them all for. The intrinsic value of the Gold and silver shoul be looked after, for that may perhaps make ‘’em worth the money, not to mention the Beauty & rarity of them.'
(Wanley 1989, pp. 39-40 Letter 37; Burnett 2020b, p. 1245)
