Dionysius, also known as Plutianus, from the city of Oxyrhynchus, to Diodorus, greetings from the same city. I acknowledge that I have with you through the hand of the silver coin of the Augustan currency, forty-eight drachmas, which are not at all related to the total, which I will also return to you on the thirtieth of the current month of the fourth year of the reign of the Lord Caesar Antoninus. If I do not return as it is written, I will pay you the current principal with half and the interest of the time that has passed, being due to you from the transaction, as I have from my own and from all that I have, just as from a rightful claim, my own signature of Dionysius, also known as Plutianus, is attached everywhere and to everyone who is bringing it. In the fourth year of the Emperor Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrianus Antoninus Augustus.

Dionysios, also called Ploution, from the city of [Oxyrhynchus], to Diodoros from the [same] city, greetings.
I acknowledge that I have received from you, through your hand, from the house, eight hundred forty-eight drachmas of silver [imperial] coinage, to which nothing at all is added, which I will repay to you on the thirtieth day of the current month of the fourth year of Antoninus Caesar the lord.
But if I do not repay as written, I will pay you the aforementioned principal amount with an additional half (50% penalty), and interest of one drachma per mina per month for the overdue period, with the right of execution against me and all my property as if by legal judgment. My handwritten signature, Dionysios also called Ploution, is valid everywhere and against anyone who produces it.
Year four of Emperor Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrianus Antoninus Augustus Pius, Hathyr 24.
