Acknowledgment of a cash loan of 3 talents 400 drachmas by Aurelius Ammonios Onnophris, who promises to repay in Pauni of the following year or pay the agreed interest. It was written on 28 October 316, probably in the Hermopolite nome, by Aurelius Kyrillos for the illiterate borrower.

In English machine translation

[recto] [… lines lost …] […] three talents and four hundred drachmas, total 3 talents 400 drachmas, which I will also repay to you in the month of Pauni of the fortunate coming consulship. If the aforesaid term arrives and I do not repay, I shall acknowledge the agreed interest until repayment of the money has taken place, the right of execution being yours against my person and from all my possessions of every kind, as if by legal judgment. This document, written in a single copy, I have also issued to you for security, and having been asked the formal question I gave my assent. In the consulship of Caecina Sabinus and Vettius Rufinus, the most illustrious, Hathyr 1. I, Aurelius Ammonios Onnophris, the aforementioned, have received and will repay as stated above. I, Aurelius Kyrillos, who also wrote the body of the document, wrote on his behalf, as requested, since he does not know letters. [verso] […] … repayment in the month of Pauni.

The opening, with the lender's name, is lost. Interest is mentioned only as a penalty if the loan is not repaid on time.
