The end of a contract dated by the regnal year of the emperors Valerian and Gallienus and the Caesar Valerian, in the month Phaophi, followed by physical descriptions of two parties, Kastor and Abestis. The verso carries a writing exercise repeating part of the imperial dating formula. Probably from Euhemeria in the Arsinoite nome, AD 256.

In English machine translation

[recto] [...] [...] of Publius Licinius Valerianus and Publius Licinius Valerianus Gallienus, Pious Fortunate, and Publius Licinius Cornelius Valerianus the most sacred Caesar, Augusti, Phaophi. Augusti [...] Aug(usti) Aug(usti) [...] Kastor, aged about 35, scar on the right knee Abestis, aged about 33, scar on the right calf [verso] of our {lords} lords [...] and Valerianus Gallienus Augusti, second year

The repeated and partly deleted words on the recto and the dating formula on the verso appear to be scribal practice rather than part of the contract. The provenance is uncertain.
