Preservation comment

Two joining sherds (0996+1024) and one nonjoining sherd (1603) preserve 30% of rim and part of middle to upper body. Slight, sparse abrasion and rare chipping; slightly worn breaks; thick, rough coating of encrustation covering 0996 and in large patches on 1024 and 1603. One small sherd adhering to body.
