    Carausius Brother, can you spare a sestertius?

    This is why United States silver coins were quickly removed from circulation and hoarded when clad coins were issued.

    Another ancients lesson learned. We named our son Marc Anthony, we added the H so he wouldn't be confused with the old guy. Thanks for the post, answers, and opinions.
