Description by Michael Welch:  #6 One-third handle with a tiny amount of jar pottery remaining attached.  Pottery color is pinkish gray with white and black grits throughout and a gray core.  There is some iron stain and encrustations.  There is also a new chip about the size of a dime to the bottom left of the seal impression.  Bears a H4L impression.  Out of LMLK on the top, the initial Lamed, most of the second Lamed and all of the Kaph are clear.  On the bottom, out of HBRN, most of the Beth and Resh remain.  About three-fourths of the stylized scarab remains.
