The remains of three lines are preserved on the roughly triangular fragment; they are separated by frame lines, but the frame above line 1 in Giussani's drawing is not certain.

The reading of lines 1 and 2 is clear, though only the tips of the three bars are left of epsilon in line 1, and the fourth bar of mu in line 2 may just be missing (pace {{bib|Tibiletti Bruno 1969b}}: 174); at the beginning of line 2 the very tip of a bar may be made out (ibid.).

First published in Giussani 1927: 145–148.
Images in Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 273, tav. I.1a (drawing from Giussani 1927: 147, fig. 8) and 1b (photo), Solinas 1995: tav. LXVII.d (photo), Morandi 2004: 621, fig. 20.147 (drawing).
The remains of three lines are preserved on the roughly triangular fragment; they are separated by frame lines, but the frame above line 1 in Giussani's drawing is not certain. Line 1 ends on the fragment, while lines 2 and 3 are incomplete at both ends. Reading from Whatmough 1933 (PID): 630, no. 299 bis based on Giussani's drawing. The reading of lines 1 and 2 is clear, though only the tips of the three bars are left of epsilon in line 1, and the fourth bar of mu in line 2 may just be missing (pace Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 174); at the beginning of line 2 the very tip of a bar may be made out (ibid.). In line 3, which is not preserved in its full height at any point, the first preserved letter could as well be alpha; according to Solinas, only a single hasta can be made out today. The letters of line 1 are larger than those of line 2; Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 173 f., no. 1, assumes that line 2 predates the others. See also Tibiletti Bruno 1978: 142 f., Prosdocimi 1986: 238, Prosdocimi 1987: 574, Tibiletti Bruno 1990b: 106 f.
