Description

A small oval object with a rough, pitted surface is shown on a pale grey backdrop inside a photo mount. Faint raised shapes cross the face, including a band-like ridge in the lower middle, suggesting a worn design in relief. Handwritten number labels and a small reference code sit on the card beneath the photograph.
