In English machine translation

Year 3 of Imperator Caesar Trajan Augustus, Pachon 7. Talouth, daughter of Atron, through Au…[…]us, wife, mother of Tosois, has paid to Ptollion, collector of money taxes of Soknopaiou (Nesos), on account of public dues for year 3, eight drachmas in dirty (coin), total 8 drachmas.

"Dirty" (rhypara) drachmas refers to debased or worn coinage accepted in payment. The catalogue title calls this a weavers' tax receipt, though the text itself only says "public dues"; the provenance is marked as uncertain.

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 Weavers’ 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.
