Transcription
A small pot of Roman coins was discovered 3 miles away. The pot was whole, but it was damaged when the labourer was digging it up. The coins are 1200 to 1300 years old. Copley and Thoresby possess most of them. Sir Godfrey Copley was a politician and active member of the Royal Society. He was elected a Fellow of the latter in 1691 (C. I. McGrath, Copley, Sir Godfrey, second baronet (c.16531709), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/6269, accessed 24 June 2013]).
