Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'Since what you told me of the late discovery of Hippocrates upon some of the medals of Smyrna, I have examined mine, and on the other leaf of this sheet have written a Catalogue of such as I think have that figure, with the names of persons – that, if Dr Mead designs to take notice of those sort of Medals, and finds among these any that he has not yet met with, he may have perusal of them, and have them engraved if he thinks fit.' (Nichols 1812-1815, vol. 3.2, pp. 780-1; Burnett 2020b, p. 1006 n. 39)
