It certainly looks nice, but its NOT an H.201B. The top and bottom
spoilers and s/n 13 place it as an early H.201. At #13 all flying
surfaces will have balsa skins.

In case you're wondering, I own #82, which is also an H.201.

The upgrade to the B series was progressive, starting from #111 and
ending with #182. This involved replacing balsa with foam in the flying
surfaces, a revised tailplane and installing ballast bags as standard.
