A tax receipt recording that a woman named Talouth, daughter of Atron, paid 8 drachmas in public dues for the third year of Trajan to Ptollion, collector of money taxes at Soknopaiou Nesos. The payment was made through an intermediary, and the receipt is dated 2 May AD 100.
"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.
