After the high priesthood of Flavius Pousaios and John of the most illustrious Phaiophis, Aurelius Kolloouthos, son of Anouthios, a vegetable seller of the city of Oxyrhynchus, to Aurelius Papnouthios, son of Matthew, who is residing in the village of Kerkas, of the upper Theodosian nomos, greeting. I acknowledge that I have received from you in use through your hand from your house for my own and necessary need a single gold coin, a simple and stable one, which being safe from all danger, I will necessarily return to you on the fifth and on the tenth of the month of Phamenoth of the current year, the 7th indiction, without any contradiction and judgment, being made to you of the collection from me and from all those who are under me. The letter is a simple one written and having been asked, I acknowledged. (hand 2) Aurelius Kolloouthos, son of Anouthios, the one mentioned, I have in use the gold coin, one of the capital, and I will return it in the deadline as is appropriate and having been asked, I acknowledged. Aurelius Phoibammons Apphoutos, having been authorized, I wrote on his behalf letters without his knowledge. (hand 3) ☧
