An ostracon from Elephantine listing six men with sums of money in gold solidi beside each name, four owing or paying 1 1/2 solidi and two paying 1 solidus. It dates to the 6th or 7th century AD.

In English machine translation

† Theodoros Makar: 1 1/2 solidi † Iakob son of Georgios: 1 1/2 solidi Patkele: 1 1/2 solidi Sphranx: 1 1/2 solidi Paulos, apaches(?), D…: 1 solidus Viktor Pames: 1 solidus

The abbreviation read as apaches (a word for a type of collector or official) after the name Paulos is uncertain, and the following name is partly illegible. The solidus (nomisma) was the standard late Roman gold coin.
