MGA 1956 LHD - MGA Chassis number info - Mercedes W124 Indian imports

Hello MGA owners,

I am looking to buy an MGA and have seen one with many pics. I had four many years ago in the 70's. The car in question is a 1956 LHD and lives in the US. One of the chassis plates is perplexing me. Its reads as follows - I may have misread the info as some of the characters are rather faded, but does anyone have any info, please. I am quite on pursuing this car, but nervous in respect of the odd chassis plate.

Thanks bery much - James

Maybe originally imported to Denmark and this was a plate put on by the importer?
