Description by Michael Welch: #50 Three-fourths handle with a small amount of jar pottery remaining on the bottom. Potter's wheelmark remains on the bottom of the jar pottery. Pottery color is light brown with a few white grits throughout and a black core. Bears a Z2D type impression. Out of LMLK on the top, most of the initial Lamed and a trace of the Mem and the Kaph remain. Out of ZP on the bottom, most all of the Zayin and the head of the Pe remain. About seven-eighths of the two-winged emblem, including three rays of the sun on the top and the bottom, and a small portion of the circle of the sun remain. There is a very clear fingerprint above the impression a little bit to the right, and a few finger impressions on the underside of the handle, and toward the base of the handle on the outside near the impression. These probably were made by one of Hezekiah's Royal Officials, when they made the sealing. There is a #14 in pencil from a previous collection on the bottom.
