For anyone curious (I'm no expert) on the period value of this, I've seen estimates of ~$750,000 of purchasing power. These are Aureus which equal 25 Denarius (silver coin of the time) which is roughly 1 full day of labor. So ball park 25 years of labor at 300 working days a year. I realize this is fuzzy, just an idea.
