Human-headed heartscarab with two holes through the base for suspension. The prothorax bears the image of the kneeling goddess Isis on the hieroglyph for 'gold'; the elytra are marked with a lattice of vertical lines, while the legs are not indicated. The flat side bears an incised text composed of somewhat crudely-formed signs, arranged in 9 horizontal lines, none of which contain the owner's name. The human head, delicately and carefully carved in high-relief, wears a wig with double bag; the facial features are highly detailed.
