Fragment of a document concerning a payment or delivery of grain, apparently made by or on behalf of the writer's farmer, from the harvest of a year of the joint reign of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus. It mentions a price per artaba in drachmas and is dated in the month of Mesore.

The catalogue describes the text as a payment of grain; the exact regnal year and the parties' names are lost. The reading 'twenty-third' is uncertain in context.
