A catalogue of a most valuable and curious collection of Greek and Roman gold and silver medals, lately purchased abroad by Dr. Giraldi Among many others equally rare, are the twelve cs̆ars in gold and silver, in the highest preservation.

Bristow, Rolls buildings, Fetter-Lane: who sells by commission, on the most reasonable terms, estates, stocks in trade, furniture, medals, books, pictures, prints, &c. or procures immediate purchasers for them
