- Conservation Status
- In a rather bad state of preservation so that many details are unclear. Regularly cut off to the left and at the bottom. Contains a large number of minor abrasions and two vertical folds.
- Palaeographic Description
- Written in a quick but fairly clear semi-cursive and same hand on the verso. To the right of the recto account are very fragmentary remains, in a different hand, of a previous document apparently also a farm account. Of the number of the year (recto 1, l. 1) only a single stroke is left. This maybe read equally well as part of g, e, s (6) or z. At places, the ink has faded rather badly.
