And also note Plb. 6.39.12-14. Earlier author, but the data-point placed later chronologically. On the conversions, note Crawford, Coinage and Money in the Roman Republic (1985), 147. Cf. also Plautus, Mostellaris 357.
And on *all* of that, note Michael Taylor, Soldiers and Silver (2020), which also includes some interesting comparative data with other pay-rates in the Hellenistic Mediterranean.
