The only difference is mine has the horizontal bars across the two arch-ways.  Not sure if they are broken on yours or were never there.

More like the equivalent of an engraver's variation than an actual sub-type I think. 

Great fibula though.  Interesting that they have the two doors which matches existing city gates much better than the single door of the "camp gate" coins.
