Notlar	Recto: Early epistolary format. Address comes immediately after the basmala: لابي نعيم. The writer states that he has received the letter of the addressee, that he is pleased that he is in good health, and that he has understood what he says in the letters. Closes with the phrase: و كتب ليومين بقيا من ذى الحجة 'It was written with two days remaining of Dhū al-Ḥijjah'. The letter is sent from a certain Abū ʿAmr and his wife Umāma to one Abū Nuʿaym and his family. The main reason of the letter is to get in touch and to maintain the ṣihr relationship (relationship through marriage). The letter closes after blessings for the addressee and the final salām greeting with the date.The references to the addressee within the letter fluctuate between the plural and the singular. The scribe makes mistakes in grammar and spelling. The letter is well structured with gaps to mark off the onset of sections.Verso: Address of letter on recto, partly obliterated. For more information see full description in Joy and sorrow in early Muslim Egypt, text 24.

Durum	The left hand side is missing resulting in the loss of two or three words at the end of each line. The original cutting lines have been preserved on the other three sides. There is a big vertical tear at the top and several small holes and lacuna at the middle of the papyrus which have resulted in some loss of text. At the right hand side, a margin of 2 cm has been left blank. The papyrus has been folded 14 times horizontally, whereas there are no vertical folds perceptible. On the verso side, one line of the address is still preserved.

Yazı Tipi	The text shows some features of the early script, i.e. final alif الف extends below the connecting stroke (l. 11 iyyānā; l. 12 al-ikhāʾ). The upper stroke of dāl/dhāl bends back at the top (l. 19 dhī). Sīn is written occasionally as a straight line with three dots written over it to represent the teeth (l. 18 al-salām). Initial kāf is hairpin-shaped (l. 17 kitābukum). The stroke of د sometimes bends back at the top. Final yāʾ extends backwards in a straight line (l. 2 li-abī).
