[25] The Drachma was very nearly equal to the French Franc.

[26] Or, approximately, 250l., the difference being only 1-40th.

II. Aeginetan and Euboic Silver.—The coins of these systems can be easily calculated from the Attic, according to the ratios given in Table XI., No. 1. As thus calculated, the Aeginetan Talent was equal to 406l. 5s., and the Euboic was equal to 338l. 10s. 10d., and the Drachmae were equal respectively to 1s.d. for the Aeginetan, and 1s.d. + ⅕ of a farthing for the Euboic.

III. Grecian Gold.—The values of the Grecian gold money cannot be conveniently reduced to the tabular form; they will be found in the articles Stater and Dareicus.
