 Paper 36 folios. 20,5 30 Text area varies. Foliation in ink. Another contemporary numbering in the lower margin counts the number of fines on each page. VI12 + IX30 + III36 Fols. 29–30 have apparently become loose from their quire and are now pasted to fol. 31 in the gutter. The fragment is in good condition. One unruled column with a varying number of lines.

One main hand writing a cursive. The hand may be the same one appearing at least in some of the accounts bound in the same volume. It also appears in other registries of fines (Helsinki, National Archives, 1941; Helsinki, National Archives, 216b (hand III)).

The ingresses are written in a more formal script. Apart from that, no decoration.

Modern binding of blue cardboard. The same binding includes several other manuscripts: namely accounts from Ylä-Satakunta written around the same time as this manuscript.

A registry of fines from sessions presided over by Jöns Västgöte in Ylä-Satakunta in 1554. The record is a transcript. Although the scribe may be the same as appears in other booklets bound in the same volume, the current composition of the volume is probably modern.

The later history of the manuscript is unknown. Probably it was sent to Sweden after its writing and shipped back to Finland after the Hamina accords of 1809. National Archives’ call-mark '1973' on a label pasted to fol. 1.
