Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'Labelled ‘Medailles Anciennes qui sont les plus rares en or, argent et cuivre’. The list is headed ‘Les medailles des Colonies sont les bonnes’ and consists of a list from ‘Les medailles de Jules Cesar sont rares en or et en bronze et en argent dit Mr. Vaillant’ to ‘Glycerius, Julus Nepos rares’, followed by some general comments. This looks like a series of notes made from Vaillant (which would explain why it is in French).' (Burnett 2020b, p. 767)
