Smashing plate for bread in old Greece (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lepta

'bread in old greece' is the definition.
(former Greek currency unit - 'bread' means money)

'smashing plate' is the wordplay.
'smashing' is an anagram indicator.
'plate' is an anagram of 'LEPTA'.

'for' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
