Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

-Letter of 8 Febr. 1794 (from Rome): "Eckhel ha pubblicata la sua grand’opera intitolata Doctrina Num. Vet. Voi siete citato, ed io fo parte di quelli dell’Arte, ma non crede alle medaglie rare da me descritte, e quasi mi chiama un moderno falsario nella Scienza" (Missere Fontana 2022, p. 532, note 78, 536, note 120).
