The right ribbon end 'V' is off-centre to the left. If it was off-centre to the right, then you would have the elusive 1st obv.

There are a number of minor differences between OBV1 and OBV2
But for instant and positive identification you need look no further than at the location of the "I" in GRATIA
If the "I" points to a denticle,it's OBV2
If the "I" points between denticles,it's OBV1
