In English machine translation

Year 3 of Imperator Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrianus Antoninus Augustus Pius, Tybi 28, for the account of Hadrianos (month). Tesenouphis the younger, son of Tesenouphis, has paid to Hermas, collector of Soknopaiou Nesos, for the price of […] of year 2, 100 drachmas, total 100 drachmas, additional charges 6 drachmas 1 1/2 obols, for the receipt 3 obols.

The name of the tax after 'price of' is lost, so the levy cannot be identified. 'For the account of Hadrianos' refers to the month Hadrianos (Choiak) to which the payment was credited; the surcharges (prosdiagraphomena) were standard extra fees added to the main sum.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Receipt for an Unidentified Tax). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
