What is a lepton (Biblical Roman)?

A lepton was the smallest low-value bronze coin in ancient Judea used as a unit of very small mass in historical contexts.

What does mina (Biblical Greek) represent?

The mina is an ancient unit of mass used in biblical Greek and Near Eastern sources for weighing precious metals and large monetary amounts.

Can these conversions be used as exact measurements?

No, both units vary historically, so conversions provide approximate equivalences rather than precise values.
