It has 100% heavy patination except for some recent damage to the proximal end, which shows a dark grey/ black flint beneath. Both surfaces have traces of iron staining.The dorsal face has at least two blade removal scars, with the striking platform at the proximal end. The distal end appears thickened where removals have finished just before this point. There is no sign of retouch around the edges of the flake, and no sign of flake removals to the ventral face.The object measures 77.56x38.60x22.10mm and weighs 36.46g.
