Default Re: BE Code Rear - Opinions on Stamping

Is the base of the E in the BE code longer then it's top two fingers,or is that just the angle of your picture?

I believe it is just slightly skewed by the angle of the camera shot. I have not done any forensic level of measuring depths, lengths, type sets or strike patterns but to the open eye in person it does not appear to me to have been a restamp. I just want to make my best effort to provide an accurate description of the part when I offer it to anyone.

The middle line on the "E" in the BE appears to be different than the lower "E" for the Eaton stamp. IMO

Or, did they use a different stamp for the Eaton posi?
