• Ὀρσενούφει (Orsenouphis) and Παλαμο̣ύ̣ν̣εω̣[ς] (Palamounis) are Egyptian names transliterated into Greek.
• ἀργυ(ρίου) (δραχμὰς) means "silver drachmas," a common currency in Greco-Roman Egypt.
• (ἔτους) λγ means "year 33," likely referring to a regnal year or era.
• Ἐπεὶφ (Epeiph) is an Egyptian month, roughly corresponding to July-August.
• The letter "v" (or possibly "ν") before "Πολέμωνι" might indicate a numeral or abbreviation, possibly denoting an additional payment or note.
