I was just contacted (out of band) by Wladimir D, who reported an interesting matter about f57v.
While the common idea is (as Rene puts it) that "The second ring from the outside has a four times reapeating sequence of single characters." (You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.), actually the sequence is not strictly repeating.
The first two sequences (counting from the dairol reference point) contain f, while the third and the fourth ones contain p instead.
I did not notice that until Wladimir pointed that out to me.
Having a closer look at this ring, I further noted that the second-to-last symbol of the sequence also differs. It is i with a crossbar in the first sequence, and in sequences 2-4 it is rather e with a crossbar.
