Light brown papyrus sheet, broken off at the bottom, with few insect holes in the preserved portion, and irregularly cut to the right. Writing runs along the fibres on one side, the back being blank. There is one column of which 16 lines survive, the last being rather mutilated. Upper, right and left margins are extant, with the right margin being minimal.
