SIBI-P1 Translation G694-01
silver coins
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative neuter plural (Gr,N,,,,,ANP); direct object form, referring to multiple items of silver currency. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root sense of refined or coined silver (ἀργυρ-) while reflecting the neuter accusative plural form as multiple items. "Silver coins" maintains the material emphasis inherent in the term rather than abstract "money." |
