Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'I was told lately that t'other day Browne Willis, Esq. gave a Collection of Coins to Xt Church Library, What they are I know not. He told Mr. West he had a five shillings piece of Hen. VIII. Many years ago Mr. Willis shewed me (when I was at Whaddon Hall) his coins by Candlelight, but I only just saw them, and I remember one was of Ric. II, as Mr. Willis assured me, but I had not an opportunity of examining and considering it, what I should have been very glad of, especially when I lately published the Life of Ric. II.' (Hearne 1885, vol. 10, p. 351; Burnett 2020b, p. 408 n. 228)
