Paraphrase

Tablet concerned with 1 mina and 7 shekels of gold, including nalṭar-gold, sent for testing (pīdānu) and improvement (ṭiābu D).

 

For pidānu as “testing,” see Kleber, Kaskal 13 (2016), 121-134.

The tablet was not allowed to be removed from its box because of its fragile condition. Only the obverse was examined.
