Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

-Lettre du 2 novembre 1795: “Par tout ce que j’ay l’honneur de vous dire vous pourrés comprendre que ma collection n’est pas souillée par de fausses medailles et que j’ay bien appris a les connoitre. Mais je crains bien qu’il n’en soit pas de meme de la collection de M(onsieur) Ainslie, car outre les trocs que M(onsieur) Sestini peut avoir fait avec le Bey qui residoit a Const(antino)ple il est a craindre que ce dernier par des emissaires grecs ou armeniens n’ait fait acheter à l’ex ambassadeur beaucoup de piéces retouchées proprement, et qui auront paru d’autant moins suspectes qu’elles avoient l’air de venir directement des lieux ou on les trouve” (Wien, KHM, MK Archiv V, 46, ff. 2r-2v ; Williams 2019).
