The outer face has a central longitudinal groove with a legend above and below it. The top line reads; '( )a minute( )' and the lower line reads; '( )oe today ( ).' On the inner face there are four evenly spaced longitudinal lines with various numbers inbetween them, the numbers '9,' '8' and '7' can be seen.
