Obo, type 1

The obverse legend shows a letter L linked to the letter H and which is inverted, unlike type 1, var 1 where the letter is linked but in a good orientation. The reverse legend is difficult to read, only one letter V? The letter I mixed with a second letter V? A large space between the letter C and the cross, perhaps a letter is erased at this location. The letter E looks like the letter C.
