νομισμάτια δύο, γίνεται νομισμάτια β κεφαλαίου ἀκίνδυνα
ὄντα ἀπὸ παντὸς κινδύνου ἅπερ ἐπάναγκες ἀποδώσω σοι ὁπόταν βουληθῇς ἄνευ πάσης ὑπερθέσεως καὶ εὑρησιλογίας γινομένης σοι τῆς
πράξεως παρά τε ἐμοῦ καὶ ἐκ τῶν ὑπαρχόντων μοι πάντων. κύριον τὸ τῆς προχρείας γραμμάτιον ἁπλοῦν γραφὲν καὶ ἐπερωτηθεὶς ὡμολόγησα.
Αὐρήλιος Μηνᾶ Σιλβανοῦ ὁ προκείμενος ἔσχον
καὶ νῦν εἰς λόγον προχρείας τὰ τοῦ χρυσοῦ νομισμάτια δύο κεφαλαίου καὶ ἀποδώσω ὁπόταν βουληθῇς
ὡς πρόκιται. Αὐρήλιος Εὐλόγιος Σιλβανοῦ ἔγραψα
ὑπὲρ αὐτοῦ γράμματα μὴ εἰδότος.

[…] two solidi, total 2 sol., of capital, [free from risk] of every danger, which [I shall of necessity] repay to you whenever you wish, without [any] delay or evasion, [you having] the right of execution against me and against all my property. This loan document, written in a single copy, is valid, and having been asked the formal question I have agreed.
I, Aurelius Mena son of Silvanus, the aforesaid, have received even now as a loan the two gold solidi of capital and I shall repay them whenever you wish, as stated above. I, Aurelius Eulogios son of Silvanus, wrote on his behalf since he does not know letters.

About this record's data
- From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
- AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
- Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
- Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
- Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
- date — from HGV-meta, TM-Text 33534 (see that record)
