<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 5464484, member: 26302"]I was trying to say that Aureus would be the total pay, not necessarily the coinage given to the troops. Just like if you get paid $1000 a week, does not mean the employer has to give you a $1000 bill, they can give you 8 $100's and 10 $20's. Similarly, if someone got paid $10 a month in US history does not mean they had to been given an Eagle.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
