Can someone identify this cartridge?

This cartridge came off of a Dual 1214. I've never seen one. Can someone please identify it for me?
Thanks!

Welcome to AK.

That's certainly an unusual one!

Maybe an older Grado? I have one that has the pins just like that in with a bunch of odd ball cartridges.

Yes it does look like one of those older Grados. does it have a conventional stylus or is it one of those that's held in place by a tiny screw?

Looks like a FCE era Grado. Which was a superb low cost cartridge back in that era.

Yes, I have seen one - in fact have one - which came on a low-end record-changer I got with a load of other stuff for cheap. It's a Grado as others have said, and I believe you will find the stylus is non-removable. I haven't used mine to see what it sounds like.

Exactly what it is. original F series cart. FTR, FTE etc. styli can be found on that auction site, but selection is down to conical only.

Thank you all so much! The stylus is removable, but smaller and slides in through the mid section of the cartridge. It is very similar in look to the F3e cartridge that I have with slight differences.
I had a feeling it was a Grado but could not find that logo.
