Well I don't want anybody to get confused here and think I know what I'm talking about  Cheesy but I see it this way, It looks like SLVO but I'm thinking it's really SLVG, LVG would be Lyon and the S would be the workshop Huh Undecided

looks like I don't need to add anything - it's on the reduced standard (of post 356AD) - and yes it is Lyon - second workshop (first workshop would be PLVG) - with a reverse meaning something like 'thanks for 5 years, here's to 10' - VOT V MVLT'.

It's not a bad one either - no obvious striking crack Smiley
