Findspots:
One brick from Thebes (# 2641. Schiaparelli 1887: 435-436).
Unknown examples of bricks of this, 125, 126, 161, 230, or 635/B.08 from around TT 66 (Winlock and Crum 1926: 17).
Unknown examples of bricks (this cone or # 635/B.08) from the court of TT 103 (PM I, 2: 654).
Several examples of brick-type from TT 46 (Redford 2010: 367).
Remarks:
The ascribed owner is identical to that of # 635/B.08 and # 663/B.36.
The text content of # 635/B.08, # 661/B.34, and # 663/B.36 is almost the same, yet the order of production among these three bricks is unclear. Furthermore, the rationale behind the necessity for them, despite the similarities in their contents, remains unclear and requires further investigation.

This seal impression may have been stamped solely on the bricks, rather than the cones. Further information on this particular type can be found here.
