Bf 109 wreck identification code

Hi Guys
Last week this pic was on Ebay. Does anybody know the meaning of the identification code? As far as I know the "Doppelwinkel" means Gruppenkommandeur, but what does the black 4 mean? I can't find anything about this, maybe I've got the wrong books or I'm just dim at the moment.

Thanks for your help.
Regards

Harry

Michael,

According to Franck Benoîton and George Morrison, this might be a Bf 109 G-4 of 2./Aufkl.Gr. 14, either in Tunisia or Sicily.

Or 4.(H)/12 ... that I do prefer; that's the best I can do...
But any suggestion or knowledge is welcome.

BR, Franck.
