630 Euphemia is a mid-sized Eunomian asteroid.
Photometric observations at the Palmer Divide Observatory during 2005 showed a best fit rotation period of 79.18 ± 0.02 hours with a brightness variation of 0.2 ± 0.02 in magnitude. However, some uncertainty remains concerning the reliability of this result.[4]
