A small fragment of a tax account from Ghoran in the Arsinoite nome, dated to year 4 (244 BC), recording payments in bronze for the month Phamenoth with an exchange charge and a total. It belongs to a set of records of taxes connected with land sown with green crops.

Year 4, Phamenoth: in bronze 6 (drachmas) 3 obols; exchange (agio) […]
Total […] 14 (drachmas) 3 1/4 (?) obols
The 'exchange' (allage) was a surcharge levied when taxes were paid in bronze rather than silver. The final figures are uncertain: the fraction after the obols may be 1/4, and the text names Phamenoth although the record dates the document to a month later.
