Fragment of a tax receipt from Antinoopolis, issued by the Flavii Ammonios and a colleague through Ammonios, acknowledging payment of sixty solidi and 8 carats. It belongs to the 6th-century archive of Dioscoros.
In English machine translation
Flavii Ammonios and [Victor, gold-collectors (?)],
through me, Ammonios, [successor (?)]
of the gold-collector: I agree to [the receipt for the]
sixty [...] solidi
and 8 carats, as stated above.
The colleague's name Victor, the titles, and the word for the receipt are editorial restorations. "Stoichei moi" is the standard Byzantine subscription formula meaning "I agree" or "it is satisfactory to me"; carats (keratia) are fractions of the gold solidus.
