'the Medalls of ΜΙΛΗΣΙΩΝ with ye Temple [one of the coins Chishull was asking about], I don’t remember I ever saw ye medall graved no were, & I cant tell if Mylord Duke of Devonshire has it; but ye next of ΔΙΔΥΜΕΥΣ ΜΙΛΗΣΙΩΝ You find it Graved in ye middle brass of Patin pag. 73 Paris Edit. 1696 in folio. I don’t know what purpose Mr Chishull has for those Medalls, but yr most Rare, & most considerable of those Peoples, I have Pubbish it, in my Second Volume pag. 279 Plate XXV of ye Duke of Devonshire ΔΙΔΥΜΕΥΣ ΜΕΙΛΗΣΙΩΝ by which I correct a very great mistake of Banduri. I have no time now to Look for ye medall of ΤΗΙΩΝ with ye reverse of Baccus, but I have some notion that I have seen said one. If I find any Thing about it I shall Let you know it.'
