Faint dividers and geometric sketches on a near-blank verso
Compasses, a crossed circle, and small circle-in-frame figures, mostly showing through.
The e-Leo note records that this side was invisible before restoration and effectively bears no writing. A few faint drawings can be made out, largely the recto (folio 1046r) showing through: a pair of dividers or proportional compasses and a small circle divided by a cross at the upper right, and several little figures of a circle set within a slanted rectangle across the middle. The marks are faint and hard to separate from show-through.

Dividers and small framed-circle sketches
At the upper right a pair of dividers or proportional compasses is drawn, together with a V-form and a small circle. Across the middle are several tiny figures of a circle enclosed in a slanted rectangle. These faint elements largely correspond to the instruments worked out on the recto and show through the thin paper.
Crossed circle
A small circle divided into quarters by a cross sits at the upper right among the compass figures, a plain geometric construction. It appears faintly and is difficult to distinguish from the recto showing through.
