Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'[summary]: In his collection of coins there is but one of debased metal before the time of Hen. VIII; it is a coin of Hen. III, which he sends to Hearne as a present. Hopes Hearne will give a cut of the Brass coin, which he takes to be of Carausius, though some call it a Runick coin.' (Hearne 1885, vol. 10 pp. 401-2; Burnett 2020b, p. 1310)
