[---] 100 mine. Totale: uscite dell'anno: [---] 21 mine 60 oboli. [Resto ---] 3 dracme 3 oboli 1/10. [Retribuzione per i damiurghi] 3 mine.

Commentary

The values of expense and remainder are only partially preserved.

At line 1, the amount beginning with M for 'mine' would be, in the simplest formula, the income of the year. However, in the usual formulation, it does not include a word ending with the letter-parts still visible, which show the ending of the dative case. Therefore, Rosamilia 2023 is probably right in supposing that we have here the end of a detailed list of expenses, such as for instance in IGCyr0116002.
