Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I remember in one of your letters you promised me a list of your Scots coins, quhich I should be glad of and endeavour to furnish you with quhat ever double I can light on. For my English ones, I have made noe adittions to them except 2 or 3 of noe age, soe that you cannot almost send me any I have already.' (Sharp 1937, pp. 176-8, letter 87; Burnett 2020b, p. 811)
