Year fourteen of Aurelius Antoninus Caesar the lord, Mesore 7.

Year 15, Thoth 9, likewise for the past [year 14], another twenty dirty drachmas, total 20 dirty drachmas. [Year 15], Mecheir 8, for the past year 14, eight drachmas, total 8 dirty drachmas.

"Dirty" (rhyparai) drachmas refers to debased or worn billon coinage, as opposed to pure silver. The expansion of the tax as rent for pastures (phoros nomon) is an editorial resolution of abbreviations.
