Fragmentary papyrus sheet written on one side along the fibres, the back being blank.
The text lacks the beginning and the end. The left margin measures c. 25 mm. A sheet-join is visible at c. 25 mm from the left.
There is a paragraphus between lines 14 and 15.
Under the same glass two more little fragments are preserved: whether they are further scraps of the same sheet remains unclear.
The papyrus is mounted on cardboard in a glass case.
