الوصف

Legal document. Testimony in court, between brothers Moshe Sofer, Yisḥaq Sofer aka Maqaṣīs, and some of their family members. The paleography supports a dating estimate of 17th- or 18th-century. The legal proceedings relate to the pair's involvement in the "ṣarflık trade" (מלאכת הצרפליך) mentioned in line 2. The brother's business relations help explain Yiṣḥaq's sobriquet Maqaṣīs, meaning "clipped coins" (which was one of the services that ṣarrāfs provided). A commercial building in northeast Cairo for ṣarrāf shops, Wakālat al-Maqāṣīṣ, bore the same name during the eighteenth century (André Raymond, Artisans et Commerçants, Vols. I-II, 35, 336-337, 460). MCD.
