Receipt in form of a letter from Psais Tryphanes to his lord father Psais son of Pamour about various utensils, of which a list is given on the other side of the papyrus. There, a Coptic letter appears to be very faded, maybe because of an attempt to erase it to reuse the papyrus for the Greek receipt (see (P.KellisCopt. II 112 intro). Both texts run across the fibres; it is not clear which text was written first.
