 Within an oval frame are three horizontal registers: In the upper register is a couchant griffin with a sun disk above his back (cf. Keel 1997b: Achsib Nr. 1). In the central register is a standing falcon with the hieroglyph m˓t in front of it and a winged uraeus behind its back (cf. Keel 2010: Bet-Schean Nr. 98; Clerc 1991: 6 No. 142/4) and a cartouche with the name Mn-k‹w›-r˓ (Mycerinos) on the left (cf. Keel 1995: § 625 and Keel 1997b: Aschkelon Nr. 93; for the falcon combined with Mn-k‹w›-r˓ see Vercoutter 1945: No. 371-373 and 379]. In the the lower „register“ is the nb sign serving as an exergue (for the entire composition see Hall 1913: No. 41 with a lion instead of a griffin).
