    Lucky for you Bezos was planning his trip, the Tyrant was beating his minions and the Arab Oil Princes were planning oil price hikes. :happy::happy::happy::happy::happy:

    I had the Moderna shots and hardly noticed them going in. Really, there was no pain. Save your hated of shots for other shots, some of which do hurt.

    A plague took the life of Hostilian, joint emperor with Trebonianus Gallus in 251, only two years after the end of reign of Philip and his wife Otacilia Severa with the hippo coin.

    Hostilian. Antioch mint. Issued as Augustus, summer 351-November 351.
    21 mm. 3.83 grams.
    RIC 199. Sear III 9566.

    Don't end up like Hostilian. Get your shots!

    I think the "Tyrant" is busy getting great coins. Check out his collection/ his whole coll. is on his site. He still has not got into the German States/ Holy Roman Empire.....yet. Not even Bezos could get a complete German States collection.
