Mendy Weinreb asks:

Tosfos asks sometimes an issar will become cheaper, thus having more issarim to a dinar. However, in the point by point explanation, it translates ??? as becoming more expensive to a dinar.

(b) Question: Sometimes Isarim are cheap, like we say in Kidushin (12a)!

An unrelated correction on the same Daf, Tosfos DH Echad, d:2,

Also. the closing bracket at the end of the entry should be square. "]", like the opening bracket.
