96 Accounting dots in right margin. To the right of this sum there is evidence that the scribe has used a counting frame to calculate the total. There are five dots on a line to represent £5, on the next line one dot to represent 10s. and on the line below that, two dots standing for 2s. See Hector p42 for a description of this method of calculation.
