Images in Garovaglio 1883: fig. 6 (drawing), Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 282, tav. X.22 (photo).

Inscribed on the foot of the vessel by the rim. St. Andrew's cross is complete; the second, damaged letter is read as epsilon by Whatmough based on Garovaglio's drawing and also Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 201 f., no. 22, who notes that only a very short section of the third bar is preserved. See the object page on the mix-up with CO·70.
