XIIII is what's written on the Musius tombstone so I think is the preferred way of writing '14' at least when it comes to the Legio. In fact, I seem to find 'IIII' a common way of writing the number '4'- I recall reading somewhere that 'IV' is a more modern convention but not exactly where.
So what specifically are you interested in knowing? If you've been thorough with respect to knowing about LEGXIIII itself, you're probably reasonably well-informed as I doubt there are volumes of information known. If it's about the equipment and nature of a solider/Legio ca. 60AD, that's more-or-less what the majority of people here seem to do, so there's a lot around.
