Inscribed in two lines in reverse boustrophedon (both sinistroverse, one inverted). The surface is hardly damaged, the lines are well distinguishable. In line 1, which runs along that side of the object whose original edge is partly preserved, the first letter is definitely , with the top missing. , with only the bar on the right slightly damaged, is also clear; both its bars are scratched twice. Digamma and Iota are complete. The object is broken along the upper part of the hasta of . Then the lower part of a hasta, which can only be another Iota, being followed closely by the lowest bar of Sigma – the very tip of the middle bar is just discernible. Before the drilled hole, the remains of another hasta; a short segment of the breaking edge above the hole clearly represents the remains of a bar 
– probably (see below).
