Commentary

First published in Schumacher 1992. Autopsied by TIR in November 2013.

Pictures in Nothdurfter 1979: 100 (1073) (drawing), Schumacher 2004: Taf. 1,4 (drawing from Nothdurfter 1979: Taf. 65) and LIR (photo and drawing).

Hardly readably due to corrosion, but apparently the inscription does not belong with this group.
