The white film is most heavily concentrated in the crevices below where the ridge comes out from the center. The top and bottom edges are smooth and rounded over and the left side edge is chipped and slightly jagged. The right side edge has been broken off smoothly. There are no major pitting points to report but the fragment has several hairline surface scratches.
