Long distances on distance signs with shields

On I-40 westbound just west of Morrilton, AR, there is a distance sign.  It displays the distances to Fort Smith, I-540 North, and another town that I don't remember.  It has a mini shield for I-540.  The distance to I-540 is 95 miles.  Are there any distance signs with shields with a greater distance?

Not a shield, but a distant highway junction nonetheless:
"Set up road signs; put up guideposts. Take note of the highway, the road that you take." Jeremiah 31:21

Signs on the eastbound direction of I-40 in AR for Interstate 430 start with 100 and count down from there. That has been the highest distance with a shield composition I have seen.

The example Revive755 posted is quite impressive at 154 miles.
