But [sc. also attested is ἀργυρίδιον ["a bit of silver"], [used] as we [use it]. Eupolis in Demes [writes]: "me, I carried away a bit of silver".[1] But ἀργύριον [is what] they call the small coin, as Aristophanes [shows] in Danaeans.[2]

Ἀργύρειος σταυρός. Ἀργυρίδιον δὲ ὡς ἡμεῖς. Εὔπολις Δήμοις: ἐγὼ δὲ συμψήσασα τἀργυρίδιον. Ἀργύριον δὲ τὸ λεπτὸν νόμισμα καλοῦσιν, ὡς Ἀριστοφάνης Δαναί̈σιν.
