The story
The Mnesimachos mortgage states a 1, 325-chrysous principal, a 2, 650-chrysous penalty, and gold valuations of produce and improvements. Tribute is also reckoned in chrysoi. [1]
Local Sardian temple credit and estate assessments; not an assertion that every Hellenistic gold stater shared one currency identity. No complete account-unit termination established in this pass. [2]
