Total together 10 solidi 3 1/2 carats, 10 solidi, 3 1/2 carats. Thoth 4, 2nd indiction. I, Apollos, have signed […]. Bottos: I agree.

The katabole here is a payment order drawn on tax revenues; the solidus (nomisma) was divided into 24 carats (keratia). The reading of Victor's patronymic "Tachymia" is uncertain.
