I would not be surprised. I am preparing to be unsurprised by many things for the rest of this year.

I got the calculation wrong for the Gold ounce thing in Roman times. The Aureus weighed 0.234 ounces.

400 litres/ 0.234 = 1709 litres of cheap wine, 854 pounds of flour.

I have not checked local prices, but gold does not look overpriced to me.

I need to do some more checking.

I will have my charts sharpened up for the melee expected.
