Abstract from EMLO: Describing the discovery of the ancient coins (site, details of the digging). He says he had been to the fellow's house and told him that the finds were valuable to learned men, and that he got some and advised him to keep the rest for persons who would understand them. Some were reserved for Lord Abingdon who has ordered Mr. Townsend to pick up what he can for him, of whom you may, if you wish, make enquiry what variety there is of emperors, besides the few which I at present send you. (Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Tanner 24, f.101; Burnett 2020b, p. 374 n. 152)
