In some European countries a B note is called H, so an H7 is a B7.

E 7
B 7
G 8
D 7
A 9
E 7

Blame it on the handwriting style they used in the middle ages where
the two letters looked similar.
And for some reason they use B to represent a B flat...

There is no such chord. Perhaps the "H" was in fact a badly written
"A", so in fact you are looking for A7.

H is used in some european countries instead of B (B is then actually a Bb).

Here is another variation at the top of the neck:

e 2
B 0
G 2
D 1
A 2
E x

H7 is the same as B7 (and what everybody else calls B flat is called B) ! I
should know it, because it's the usual way of naming it here in Germany...

In german the b is named h. So it's a b7 chord.
