Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'A manuscript list, today described as a ‘catalogue of paintings, coins, portraits, &c of the Bodleian Library with the names of donors’ has a summary list of the coins in the collection.507 It is thought to have been compiled ‘?by Humphrey Owen, before he was librarian, about 1740–47’. The first pages, numbered 1 to 8, give a summary of the ‘Cimelia’, ‘Numismata & alia cimelia’ from 1601 to 1747, including the coins acquired from Archbishop Laud in 1636 until 1747.' (Burnett 2020b, p. 442)
