Ostracon receipt recording that a quarter artaba of wheat was delivered to the granary of the metropolis (Thebes) in the name of Psais, son of Senphthoumonthes, on behalf of Charax. It is dated Pauni 29 of year 5 of Antoninus (Pius), and the granary official Phthouminis countersigned it.

In English machine translation

Measured into the granary of the metropolis, from the produce of year 5 of Antoninus Caesar the lord, Pauni 29, in the name of Psais son of Senphthoumonthes, for Charax, ... one quarter (artaba) of wheat, total 1/4 (artaba) of wheat. (Signed) Phthouminis: 1/4 (artaba) of wheat.

The regnal year '5' is restored. The symbol read here as 'one quarter' (δ) also appears as a numeral in the total and the signature, so the amount is a quarter artaba.
