Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I was so intent upon the view of your coynes … I pray you at your best leisure make an exact catalogue of your coynes, with a description of the impression of the face and revers and the circumscriptions, both Roman, Saxon, and English, Scotch, Greeke and modern coynes. I cannot get so much time to catalogue mine, as yet, therfor I would gladly peruse your catalogue, and desire the loane of Occo and the MSS. of Mr Stonehouse and all the volume of Goltzius except his life of Julius Caesar.'

(Thoresby 1912, pp. 4-5; Burnett 2020b, pp. 714, 704 n. 39, 711, 863 n. 114)
