Help with identifying inlays (marks) on an Oakeshott XIIIa-type sword

I am seeking help in identifying two inlays on an Oakeshott Type XIIIa sword (see photos).

The sword appears to date from the first half of the 14th century. It has a total length of approximately 125 cm, a blade length of 99 cm, and a total weight of 2044 g. It looks very similar to the Type XIIIa sword at the Museum of London, which has a 100 cm blade.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thank you.
Richard
