Commentary

First published in Franz 1959: 229 (A 5). Autopsied by TIR in November 2013.

Pictures in Nothdurfter 1979: 100 (155) (drawing), IR (drawing = LIR) and LIR (photo).

Inscription length 2.5 cm. The left half of the second is hardly distinguishable due to corrosion and not filled with white inlay.
