In English machine translation
† I, Ioannes, tow-worker (?) of Saint Mary, have received from you, lord Ioannes son of Leukogios (?), for the price of tow […] 15 carats 1 ounce, fifteen carats, 1 ounce. † Written in the month of Choiak 23, indiction 10, by my hand, and completed.
The abbreviation stipp( ) is taken as stippourgos, a worker in flax tow; the sum is expressed in carats (fractions of a gold solidus) plus an ounce, and its exact reading is somewhat uncertain. Leukogiou may be a patronymic or a byname.
