Commentary

First published in Franz 1959: 229 (B 1). Autopsied by TIR in November 2013.

Picture in Franz 1959: Abb. 3/3 (drawing).

Franz drew the asterisk and the stroke closer to it (with white inlay), but read iiθi with the straight stroke of the asterisk interpreted as inscribed I s. See here for a discussion of possible interpretations of inscriptions with doubtful status.
