A fragmentary receipt, probably for payment of a merismos (an apportioned tax), mentioning a tax collector and a sum of 3 obols. It is dated to Mesore 27 of a regnal year of an unnamed emperor, probably in the 2nd century AD.
The merismos was a tax levied by apportioning a required sum among the taxpayers. The reading 'collector' (praktor) is an expanded abbreviation in a damaged context.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Receipt). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
