CARo _ LVS (inscribed in two lines).
V - C - E - I (anti-clockwork legend with a letter at each corner of a cross. The letter V at the top left with a globule between the two bars of the letter, the letter C at the bottom left with a globule between the two horizontal bars of the letter; the letter E at the bottom right and tilted with a globule above it, the letter I tilted to the left and positioned at the top right with a globule between the letter and the cross).
Description according to old works. Need to see a copy for confirmation.
Given the name of the city, I agree with the works which give this legend order on the reverse.
