Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I was lately with Sir James Brook, who shewed me his collection of coins and medalls. It is a very great and curious collection of antient and modern, of Greek, Hebrew, and Egyptian, as well as Roman coins. He saith that his Roman coins were most of them digged up at old Aldburgh, which are either silver, copper, or brass. A great many are not legible by reason of the rust that sticketh to them, but such as I could read are as followeth [gives a list of Augustus (3) Caligula, Galba, Otho, Vespasian, Domitian, Trajan (2), Marcus Arelius (?), 4th-century (2)].' (Burnett 2020b, p. 1240 n. 565)
