Question

coins of 5th century BC are called dash​

Answer 1

Answer:

• The stater (“standard”) Greek coin consisted of so many drachma, depending on the city: four at Athens, 2 at Corinth. The drachma was divided into obols. In Periclean Athens, one silver drachma equaled one day's work for a skilled workman. One electrum coin of the same size might have been worth ten times that.
