A second smaller shank (length = 1.43mm) is visible near the outer edge of the underside, with a third more worn shank directly opposite this second shank, but with less than 0.5mm remaining.The head has a broad outer boarder and a flat circular boss in the centre. Between the centre and the border is a slightly sunken field with two circles raised in low relief. The outer circle is formed by short segments of lines, while the inner circle is unbroken.
