| Origin and Provenance |
Origin probably Italy. These leaves of a discarded MS of Seneca were used at Bobbio for rewriting damaged portions of a MS of Kings (CLA 3.344a); this happened in the seventh century, as is evidenced by the various scripts employed by the restorers. |

| Script Commentary |
Script is a neat and delicate Rustic capital, not of the oldest type: F descends below the line; G has the uncial form; H is K-shaped, resembling h with an inverted virgula over the bow; the first and last strokes of M tend to become upright; V is approaching the uncial form. |
