2763Credit instrument or private receiptJRL A 909
Inferred date
1703–1900 CE
Primary language
Judaeo-Arabic
This receipt may have been issued for a property that was held in the qodesh of the "Maṣrīyīn" congregation and was thus signed/stamped by a communal official Yeshūʿa Zeyn. Given that the Ottoman kuruş is mentioned, which was not in wide circulation until after 1703, it is possible to estimate this document's dating as eighteenth- or nineteenth-century (the paleography also matches this designation).

The receipt bears an Ottoman-era stamp– perhaps that of a "kāshif" (which may be the title of the official who signed the document). Pinholes at the margin ~5–6mm apart. […] However, the Ottoman official al-Muʿallam Salmūn Iskenderānī is likely the same person referenced in the letters and petition: T-S Ar.38.111 (PGPID 20707); T-S Ar.39.425 (PGPID 20938); T-S AS 178.88 (PGPID 36909).
