Description

A small dark object with a rounded top edge and a fairly flat face fills the centre of a grey card mount. Its surface is grainy and speckled, with darker areas on the left and a lighter patch at the lower right, and its edges look worn. A blue paper strip shows along the bottom edge of the mount.
