Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I dined on Thursday with Mr. M. Folks; Lord Sandwich was there, whom I had visited before, and made a small acquaintance withall; he is a keen lover of antiquitys, and has brought a great collection of coins from Cairo, &c., among them two Neros with Poppaea, Claudius, Messalina, &c. At Mr. Folks's we looked over our old friend Lord Pembroke's collection of large brasse, now in his keeping, in order to putt them in due scite, and rectifye the prints made by Haym. I took notice of the OTHO. 'Tis Antiochene s. c. on the rev. in a laurel. Mr. Folks thinks it dubious as to the genuinenesse, and says Starbini, from whom my lord had it, was a great rogue' (Nichols 1781-1790, p. 464; Lukis 1882-1887, vol. 3, p. 325; Burnett 2020b, pp. 1059-60)
