Exegesis
The aorist indicative ebalen {ἔβαλεν | ébalen} “she threw, she put in” supplies the main finite verb, governing the direct object lepta dyo {λεπτὰ δύο | leptá dýo} “two small coins,” where the numeral follows the noun in typical Greek order.
In context — Mark 12:42
And a poor widow came and put in two small coins , which amount to a quadrans.
