DescriptionThe concept of Morte Prima di Disonore, or Death before Dishonor, has been used in military units at least as early as ancient Rome. By the time of the famed Roman senator and historian Tacitus (AD 56 to 117), the vow of death before dishonor had become old-fashioned and something only uttered by barbarians. However some two centuries earlier, it was Catiline (108 to 62 BC), the Roman politician who attempted to overthrow the Roman Republic who urged it. The famous concept of death as preferable to dishonor, if not the actual phrase, is not limited to the western world. For example, it was also advocated by the Japanese bushido code of samurai warrior who would rather die than live with dishonor brought on by surrender. In more recent history, the saying has become a popular tattoo in different variations and designs popular in different military units and groups.Contains:1 oz.

Add me to your Favorite Sellers Silver Tips to keep you relatively safe: 1. Silver should weight 31.1 to 31.8 grams any heavier it probably is fake, any lighter it probably is fake. The mint will almost never have it lighter then 31.1 as they don't want to cheat you out of silver, they also will most likely not make it heavier then 31.8 so as to not "give away" free silver. (you can purchase a cheap digital scale here on ebay, you just need a small one weighing grams to the 100th ie 31.18) 2. Get a strong magnet, small and circular in size, (can be found at any electronics store or even hear on ebay) Hold your silver piece at 90 degree angle with magnet at the top, let the magnet slide down the surface, if it falls off or slides rapidly, its probably fake. If it sticks, its probably fake, it should just glide down the piece all most purposely (sort of slow and controlled, but not to slow) practice a bit you will get the hang of it. 3. hold a piece of known silver on the tip of your finger, balancing it, take another piece and give it a little tap, you should hear a nice bell ringing tone. if it clinks it probably isn't real. Even if you don't purchase from me, feel free to contact me with any questions you have regarding silver, i respond quickly and am always glad to help!
