RemarksRemarks regarding the annotation. (en)

Burnett 2020b, p. 1197: 'On an earlier page (f.3r) the books by Goltzius and Caesar appear, valued at £2:10s:0d and, strangely, £0:0s:0d, suggesting a price of £27:10s:0d for the coins. Later in the same volume (f.29r), we seem to have another version of the same transaction.' (en)
