As it was very inaccurate •of the Brkiih Attrebates, when Caefar plainly declares him to have been the lovereign of the Gallic, fo was it equally unwary in Mr. Pegge to conclude, that hecaufe the Camus of Caefar wa$ a Gallic prince therefore the Comus of the Coins could not pp£- •fibly be a Britifh one (p. 38). The latter was undoubtedly a diftinft perfon from the former. And from the addition of RE. upon the coins appears to have been a Britifh king.— And fee another great miftake in Mr. Pegge p. 21, who reje&s all thp coins of Prafutagus Togodumnus and Cara&acqs, becaufe the JBritifh kings coined no monies under the Romans. The latter - may be t*ue, and the former not be falfe. Thefe princes might . coin money before the Romans fubducd their kingdoms. — P p a7 Pegge
