On further reflection I can well agree that it is tau. The attached images from 
R. Barbour, Greek Literary Hands, show clearly (scan 3) the large upper case 
tau in several lines, and in scan 4 in the first and other lines a hooked 
version of tau. So I withdraw my suggestion of pi.

  Certainly it does look more like a very common variant of “tau” than “pi”


Variant of uppercase tau?
