Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

-Letter of 5 Feb. 1648 (from Westminster to Nijmegen): "Nicholaum Heinsium patre clarissimo Daniele filium non indignum Thesauri illius in Italia Numarij pararium mihi futurum, apprime gaudeo, litterarum enim cum ipsius parente necessitudine olim fruitus sum, sincerum honestumque in eo animum me experturum non diffido: extemplo tamen monendus est, aureos me illos Numos nisi cum argenteis nullo modo reempturum, sin autem inter argenteos, numero longe potiori quod procul dubio eventurum est, non indigeam, illos ei omnes aequiori quam ipse acquisiverim pretio, indulgebo." (I am really happy that Nicholas Heinsius, worthy son of his very famous father Daniel, will be my agent for the coin collection in Italy, for I have previously enjoyed a close relationship by letter with his father, and I do not doubt that he will turn out to be sincere and honourable towards me. However, I must advise that I would not in any way buy back the gold coins except with the silver, but if I do not need any among the silver, which beyond doubt will turn out to be far greater in number, I will grant them all to him at a fairer price than I would myself acquire them) (British Library, MS Harley 377, ff.179v-180v).
