    It's another Libo, or Fabius Maximus, next.

    Can't skip ahead until those are posted, even if we have to borrow from Wildwinds to do it.

    Follow the order on the list!

    Nice work, @TIF!

    Next on the list, finally, is one many of us can play:

    Marcus Agrippa, died 12 BC. Son-in-law of Augustus

    Here's mine, from my old collection.

    So next comes another Marcus Agrippa, or move on to Julia, who is next on the list.

    I'm pretty proud of this Agrippa due to its journey. It went from Rome to who knows where. Then eventually making its way to Australia. And from Australia, big SHOUT OUT and thanks to @GregH, to me in boring ol Utah.

    Who else has Agrippa?

    I'll bet we have some nice ones among us!

    (Or you can move on to Julia. I never had one of hers.)

    I'm struck by how much your "greenie" Agrippa resembled my old one. Cool.
