A large rim and body sherd of a Samian ware cup Drag form 33 was seen bagged with other sherds marked 1958.68. Like these others, the Samian ware sherd had no suffix however, it did match the description in the Catalogue card of 'Sherd from Samian cup, Drag. 33.'. The other rim sherds of Samian ware are very small and so it is believed that this larger fragment is 1958.68 L.
