Ketuba

In the olden days, what was the law about the amount of money written in the Ketuba if the woman was not a virgin?

Answer:

A non-virgin got 100 zuz, as opposed to the 200 zuz of a virgin. However, husbands used to add (the tosefes) amounts to the basic ketuba, as they continue to do today.
