Description:
|
Loan of 2 copper talents, 2,500 drachmae for 5 months at 2 drachmae per mina interest every month. The document has been folded. Whilst the scribe could write some parts in an interesting and well-formed cursive he has hurried over the ordinary formulae and these parts are difficult to read.
