A catalogue of a most valuable and curious collection of Greek and Roman gold and silver medals, lately purchased abroad by Dr. Giraldi.

The whole may be viewed on Thursday May the 14th; and (Sunday excepted) to the time of sale; when catalogues may be then had at the place of sale, and of W. 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.
