Field Coil Speaker in a Maggie Console

[62sunbeam]

I found this Maggie Mono console that has what I think is a field coil speaker.

A. Is it?
B. Is it particularly valuable?

Any ideas on the amp?

Thanks

Eric

Sorry I can't be of any help.

Based on the wiring, it appears to have a field coil. Based on the overall crustyness, I doubt it is worth much, but that's just my uniformed opinion.

It has some value, maybe, and yes it's a FC speaker. While it has a strong Jensen resemblance, it was made by Magnavox in either Fort Wayne or Paducah.

It seems to be a later model with glued surround and gasket. Early versions had a split rim that mechanically sandwiched the surround edge between a hub and the frame the same way early Altec woofers were made.
