William Courten, November 1700
'[Left hand column:] ‘Medals AE which I wanted [in cipher] November 1700’. A list from ‘1 Caius, Agrippae et Iuliae f.’ (Augustus’s grandson) to ‘31 Valerianus Iunior’. [Right hand column:] ‘Medals AR which I wanted [in cipher] November 1700’. A list from ‘1 Sextus Pompeius’ to ‘98 Heraclius’. Some in each list have been marked with a x or a \, probably referring to ownership in some unexplained way. Some of the coins are not so rare (e.g., silver of ‘Iuba fil.’ [= Juba II of Mauretania], Crispina, Albinus, Eugenius, Honorius).' (Burnett 2020b, p. 767)
