    I could've told you Spain, definitely, but that's as far as I'd have gotten, so it's good @Mat stepped in.

    I just like the way it looked and figured $14 was not a bad price so I went for it.

    A lot of Spanish billion medievals (just like their local ancients) come with nice sandy patinas.
