About these units

Didrachma (Biblical Greek) (didrachma)

The didrachma, weighing around 8.5–9 grams, represented two drachmas. It appears in Greek, Roman, and biblical texts, often as a common temple tax or civic fee amount. Its moderate size made it practical for everyday transactions, bridging smaller denominations and larger, more valuable coins such as tetradrachms. The didrachma's consistent appearance in multiple cultures shows how interconnected the ancient Mediterranean economies were.

Scruple (Apothecary) (s.ap)

The scruple is an old apothecary unit equal to 20 grains or 1.2959782 grams, originating in ancient Greek and Roman medicine. Apothecaries used scruples for compounding herbal remedies, powders, and tinctures long before standardized metric systems were adopted. Its size made it ideal for preparing early pharmaceuticals where doses needed to be accurate but not excessively granular. Over centuries, the scruple appeared in medical recipes, early scientific writings, and even medieval charms and remedies. Although obsolete today, replaced by milligrams and grams, the scruple is vital for historians studying early medical texts, pharmacy records, and classical-era scientific practices.
