A small fragment of a Coptic ostracon from Thebes, probably a letter, mentioning a man named David and a solidus (gold coin). Too little survives to establish its purpose.
The holokottinos is the Greek term for the gold solidus of the late Roman and Byzantine period. Readings such as 'now' and 'send' are tentative interpretations of broken words.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
