Looks like a SHA1 shrink .
SHA1 is cryptographically secure but weighs in uses 40 characters, which is pretty long if you're going to be passing the data around in a URL/cookie or something similar.
There are special functions that reduce SHA1 hash down to just 27 characters by using a base65 encoding that only uses URL-safe characters.
This looks exactly like your case.
Looks like the correct solution is
md5-crypt password hash: $ openssl passwd -1 -salt DN 1q2w3e4r' --> '$1$DN$VSrllqW7nePlu.jmavF07.
Thanks Arminius.

1On the contrary, this looks infinitely more likely to be a Linux password hash. – Stephen Touset Feb 10 '17 at 07:05

The beginning looks like that, but I don't think those would use SHA-1 shrinks. the linux MD5 hash should be $1+32 characters (34 chars in total). – Overmind Feb 10 '17 at 07:31

3@Overmind I commented the "solution" below the question. You might want to include that in your answer. – Arminius Feb 10 '17 at 07:38
$ openssl passwd -1 -salt DN 1q2w3e4r
-->$1$DN$VSrllqW7nePlu.jmavF07.
