Ave,
Primus Paulus et al,
Saw your question the other day. Concur wholeheartedly that we have an imperfect understanding of the meaning of the Signum Discs. However, there is a good record in the legionary coinage that depicts all of the multiples known ....to include 1 disc. The site www.romancoins.info has a nice photo section devoted to legion coinage. There you can find multiple examples of Signum with one disc.
Regards from the Balkans, Arminius Primus, aka Al
