Commentary
First published in Marinetti 1992: 696 f. (no. 5). Autopsied by TIR on 16th November 2015.
Image in Marinetti 1992: Fig. 1.5 (drawing = LIR = MLR).
Length of the remains 1 cm. is well visible. The next character is damaged by the breaking edge; only the upper part of a hasta and a bar 
are left – maybe 
? See here for a discussion of possible interpretations of inscriptions with doubtful status.
