In English machine translation
[…] 8 drachmas, total 8 drachmas. Year […] of Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius
[Commodus An]toninus Augustus
[Armeniacus] Medicus Parthicus […]
[…]
The titles Armeniacus, Medicus and Parthicus were inherited from Marcus Aurelius and appear in Commodus' early titulature, which supports the date range. The tax itself is not named in the surviving text.
