[If he wrote,] “one hundred zuzin which are thirty selas,” he receives only a maneh. [If it stat-ed,] “silver zuzin which are ...” and [the rest] was erased, it is not less than two [zuzin]. Silver selas which are ...” and [the rest] was erased, it is not less than two [selas]. “Darkons which are ...” and [the rest] was erased, it is not less than two [darkons]. [If] above was written, one hundred [zuzin], and below, two hundred [zuzin], [or] above two hundred and below one hundred —- everything follows the bottom [statement]. If so, why is the top written? So that if one letter from the bottom should be erased, it will be derived from the top.
