Ok, here's the cheekflap currently in the Nijmegen museum. It's originally from the Meuse in Venlo (NL). Sadly it's not from the Nijmegen legionary camp (70AD-ca. 120AD?, Leg X Gem, Leg IX Hisp, Leg XXXUV), which would have made the dating much easier. Instead, it could've been from any of the lower Rhine legions, although major operations in the area were over after 70AD. Still, traffic from Bonn/Cologne to the North sea may well have passed the area.
