Help with Double Reverse Short Cross Cut Halfpenny

[Yucksha]

Hi,

I just received this curious piece in a lot of cut pennies I bought.

I think I can make out the legend SH ON W on the first side. But this could also be LSH ON W. I am not entirely sure.

Couldn't find any moneyer + mint combination in my literature that matched this so was wondering if anyone could give me a hand? I am hoping to narrow down this one as much as I can.

Thanks for your help.

The coin has flipped and rotated slightly during striking which has made the legend quite messy.

Based on the letter M which you thought was a H I'd say it's Henry III. Probably class 7b. 

Mint signature ends in a T followed by a stop so i think its it's either Canterbury or Bury St Edmunds. Moneyer is either Simvn or Simvnd I'd say.

I see. Thank you very much for your insight.

That makes a lot of sense. Very cool indeed
