This well preserved inscription is an inventory of cash from different origins. Found along with IGCyr081100, this tablet was perhaps related to it 1) if the priest Hermesandros mentioned in both is the same person; 2) because hiaromnamones are mentioned in both accounts. However this relation has been considered too hypothetical for different reasons: 1) the poor state of conservation of the other tablet, of which a great part might be lost if it was of the same shape as the present one; 2) the just mentioned priest: if his priesthood is recorded in the present tablet, he should not have been in charge many years before and this seemed inconsistent with the fact that the change of writing system, from archaic to Ionic standard, happened between the time when one and the other tablets were written. However, [...] added a new argument for a short interval between them: the fact that all numbers of mines are written in full should correspond to a phase when the specific Cyrenaican numerals were in use only for the 'lower' amounts, i.e. amounts in drachmas. He therefore fixed the date of this tablet high in the fourth century BC.

In spite of some variation in the formulae, we have at lines 2-6 five similar mentions of a deposit made by a group of persons named after a representative (president? secretary?) in a year identified through the eponymous priest. Whether those years were separated by a span of time or not and whether the mentions are chronologically progressive or retrograde is not clear. However the responsability of registering those deposits on the tablet belongs to a secretary Iason under priest Agonis son of Timokles (l. 1), in the very year of the last mentioned deposit (l. 6). This proves that the secretary responsible for the whole account (Iason) is not the same secretary as the one who acted for the annual deposit (Praxis). Iason checked the total amount of the deposits at line 7. At the end come three sums of different origins also lying in the treasury for which Iason and Agonis were responsible (more on this point below).

The persons responsible for the deposits are described as τοὶ ἀμφί τινα, a Greek phrase for a group 'around' and including a more prominent person. Only at line 6 does a slightly different formulation occur with τοῖς Πρᾶξις ἔγραφε 'those for whom Praxis was secretary'. It is thus tempting to consider that in the other instances the group was also named after the secretary. Furthermore, Praxis is mentioned again at line 8 as secretary of nine persons, but not necessarily the same ones, as the matter is here the expense for a tithe. In Gasperini's view, nine being the number of nomophylakes in Ptolemy's diagramma (IGCyr010800) in 321/20 BC, Praxis and his colleagues at line 8 should be nomophylakes. However this does not seem cautious, as we know nothing of nomophylakes before Ptolemy's diagramma. Besides, a sacrifice of a tithe does not seem so evident a task for nomophylakes. Moreover, Gasperini was inclined to guess the office of 'the nine' because of the 'supplementary payment' at line 9, which is said to be deposited by a group of hiaromnamones lead by Thrasyllion. The parallel is in no way advisable and the reason for Chaulos' supplementary payment is wholly obscure. We can only notice that in the older account (IGCyr081100) hiaromnamones are mentioned, but the context is wholly obscure.

About the tithe, as mentioned here and more generally speaking, see [...], p. 252.

Some names were not identified as such by Gasperini. Praxis (ll. 6 and 8) is a common name in Cyrenaica and gives the only possible interpretation of the phrase just mentioned. As for Χαῦλος, see already [...], pp. 37-38 and also [...], whereas Gasperini's idea of a variant of καυλός 'stem of silphium', is not plausible. Moreover, the same personal name is probably also mentioned in IGCyr115000 (a suggestive restoration by Rosamilia).

Another important aspect of this text is the Cyrenaean monetary system. [...]'s, pp. 241-247, [...]'s (= [...], pp. 217-226) and [...]'s explanations are now completed by [...].

The question of the Euboic system mentioned at line 10 and the general meaning of that line were debated by [...] and again [...], who on some points does not agree with Dobias-Lalou's options retained above. He understands line 10 as a continuation of line 9, without taking into account the paragraphos which divides the two lines. This allows an easier interpretation of the final accusative and leads to a different meaning of εὑρίσκω. In that view the translation of ll. 9-10 would be: 'Thrasyllion and the other hiaromnamones deposited 11 mines 12 drachmas and also the silver that Agonis found having a weight of five Euboic mines'
