A myriad (10,000), one [of the drachma] the fourth obol, half-obol, [choenix measure a 36, choenix measure a (symbol)] 24 choenix measure two [18 choenix measure three, 12] choenix measure four, nine.
(Total) 785; the obols are one drachma; eight copper coins equal one obol five. Then the choenix-measurement: the artaba contains 40 choenixes; the second (measure) 20 choenixes, [the third measure 20 choenixes 40], the fourth measure 10 choenixes, the fifth measure 8 choenixes, the sixth measure 8 [40], the seventh measure [8 20, the eighth measure] 5, the ninth measure 5 40, the tenth measure 4.
Monetary equivalences: in one drachma, six obols, two triobols; in one stater, 192 copper coins; copper coins 48. In one obol, eight copper coins; two half-obols; one half-obol equals four copper coins.
In half (an obol), three obols, six half-obols, 24 copper coins. In some places, one obol equals ten copper coins.
In one talent, two half-talents; one half-talent equals 30 minas; gold coins 300, drachmas 6; five-drachma pieces 206; staters 500.
In one mina, gold copper coins five; in one gold drachma, 20 drachmas; and five-drachma pieces 20. The Ptolemaic stater weighs drachmas (number missing), has obols 20.
The Alexandrian stater, which is Attic, weighs four drachmas, has four obols. In gold, five-drachma pieces [four].
