A tax receipt recording that Viktor son of Kollouthos received one gold solidus, paid through Apa Senouthios, toward the public taxes on the crops of the 5th indiction. It dates to the late 7th or 8th century AD, from the Hermopolite nome, possibly the monastery of Bawit.

In English machine translation

† Month of Hathyr 1, 4th indiction. I have received through Apa Senouthios, on account of the public revenues (dēmosia) of the crops of the 5th indiction, 1 solidus by number, less (?) [...], only. † I, Viktor son of Kollouthos, agree. †

The word read λειμο is unclear; it may stand for a deduction ("less") in the coin's weight. Dēmosia are the state taxes, here assessed on the harvest of the coming indiction.
