EID MAR

This is a good day for lawyers to check their forum selection clauses in their contracts.

Choosing a bad forum can lead you and your client to feelings of being stabbed in the back, front, and sides.

This is a also a day to ask for a steak knife to accompany your Caesar salad.

Yes, Brutus actually struck a coin commemorating his assassination of Julius Caesar on this day back in 44 B.C

One of these historic surviving denarii is up for auction on this very day, a most auspicious day for such a coin to be sold, in Denmark. Ths coin is estimated to go for between $425,435 to $496,346 U.S.

The limits on the estimate are awfully precise. I suspect you (or your source) have fallen into the conversion trap.

Chuck: Pretty much,k the article has it at 3-3.5 million Danish Krone and converted it to between $425,435 to $496,346 U.S. for those of us not conversant in Krone exchange rates.

Interestingly, the coin did not sell at the auction.
