- asveikau 7y agoVery interesting that this page talks about serious stuff like which emporer slaughtered whom and then says you can buy those coins, the very mark of the beast!
- commandlinefan 7y agoHa - I just googled it and didn't realize this was a "commercial" site. I can't remember where I first read it, but I see a lot of other references.
