[QUOTE="GerardV, post: 2834411, member: 76329"]I'm weak and pulled the trigger on this for two silly reasons: my wife is Sicilian and due to a running joke from college (I picked up an unfortunate nick-name) my fraternity brothers started calling my wife Persephone. Had to buy it, even though it's not part of the current plan to buy Trajans and Hadrians. And after reading a million posts I remembered to include the shop's description with the pic.
