I think you mean the Letter on the embossed crocodile scabbard is the one representing Allah, correct?

Hey Jim, Yes, the one with Allah is the crocodile scabbard.
As for the letter ح ha then I cannot be sure quite frankly because it could be something else. Reason why I mentioned the Muqatta'at is because I know they have more significance in Sufism. The Muqatta'at purpose is a field of research in Quranic exegesis and am not familiar with any satisfactory answer nor do I have access to any sufi interpretation. Perhaps a field to begin searching in is the sufi sects of Sudan?
