Here's a hint, sort of...

I don't think he's made an appearance on GTE before. Very few appearances anywhere on CCF.

Yep, Vabalathus. I was cruising a CNG auction and saw the coin, read the name, did a double-take. The name was almost totally unfamiliar! Guess I hadn't seen any of his before. It's a beauty. A very pricey beauty, up for auction September 18th from CNG
