Rob gold-dinar contractual fine

Bactrian documentA at Rob, dated approximately 332 CE in the more recent chronology, stipulates a20-gold-dinar fine to the royal treasury and another to the opposing party. This is a monetary legal obligation. Admit a scoped local gold-dinar profile; the older published343 CE era conversion is not silently reused.

Kushano-Sasanian association; earlier account ancestry open

Morris associates the gold dinars in these legal documents with Kushano-Sasanian issues. This provides regional monetary context, but does not itself establish the account transition from Bactrian drachmas, a Roman denarius parent, or continuity to a modern dinar. Hold those ancestry links.
