Names and shield emblems of Auxillia units.
#6
A few shield decorations can be found on Trajan's column. The only problem is stating that these were standardized throughout a unit would be speculation at best.

Not to mention there's always that "artistic license" argument as to whether or not the designs were actually real, or made up by the sculpture.
