'I don’t remember if I ever heard of any private agreement between the University and Mr Ashmole about the Coins: But wth submis[sion] I think it would be much \more/ to the honour of the University to have all their Coins well digested into Series’s in one place and und[er] one Keeper, if this could possibly be done wth regard to the Wills of [the] several (?) Benefactors.' (Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Ballard 4, f.74; Burnett 2020b, p. 455)
