Incomplete papyrus sheet, broken off at the left and with five detached scraps located in the left-hand side of the frame. The sheet is damaged by holes throughout, especially along the vertical folds, with loss mostly affecting the left portion. Writing runs along the fibres on the front, with one broad column of 25 lines, the last of which is indented. The back has traces of lines written across the fibres, much defaced, and the official stamp in red. Upper and lower margins are extant; no blank space was left at the right. The surface is abraded in places. The papyrus is housed in a glass case.
