Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'As to Saxon or Danish Coins, we have none here that collect them except myself, and those are only such as have been found with us. I have not many silver Coins, but a good number of those called Sticas, the humble monies of our Northumbrian kings, in the Heptarchy. If you have a mind, I will send you a Catalogue of them.' (Nichols 1817-1858, vol. 4, p. 619; Burnett 2020b, p. 741)
