Date Information
| Date(s): | ?1250 to 1300 |
| Notes: | Harf-Lancner 2011, 210: 'from the middle or the second half of the 13th century'. Based on the script (double compartment 'a' with open and closed upper lobe, straight 's' and round 's' in final position, 'v' in initial position) a dating towards the end of the century, rather than 1250 is probable. |

Both straight and round 's' occur in final position, with a preference for round 's'. Use of 'v' in initial position. |
