Verso, with the address on recto: Letter in Arabic script. Dating: ca. 1140 CE, based on the date of the earlier document sharing this fragment. The layout of the address is quite confusing: to Alexandria, to Sūq al-ʿAṭṭārīn, to the shop of Abū [...], to be given to Abū l-Khayr b. Ibrāhīm al-Amshāṭī al-Miṣrī. But then it says "ʿAṭiyya b. Bunyām from his brother Abū ʿAlī." Mentions: 17 dinars, "his brother Abū Saʿīd," Abū ʿAlī, depositing something with Abū Naṣr. The sender excuses his delay by saying that the price of something was still with the wakīl. (Information in part from CUDL)
