Description

The following description was prepared by William Gross:

The text of this amulet is written in both black and red ink. There is one block of 25 squares, each one of which contains one word, as in amulet 027.011.418. It would appear that this amulet is written by the same hand as both 027.011.418 and 027.011.419. The entire amulet is written in Judeo-Arabic. The purpose is to find favor in the eyes of authorities.  The name of the person for whom this amulet was made has been erased.
