Comments: Photo, impression and identification: R. Schmidt. The preceding record, T1117, has a similar description and the same Kromos signature. Only when the second gem emerges will know if there is a progression of action and prove, that the identifcation is indeed correct. See also 1839-1441. This also affects the Monson provenance.
