Pays to go through your inventory, I discovered one that wasn't on my list.  Not sure what type this is.

That looks like a type 1A.  Is the shell bakelite or metal?

As Larry said, it is probably an AE 1-A. If there is no magnet in the receiver, it is probably an AE 11-A.

If you take the base cover off, it may have a circuit on the inside.

Bakelite.

They were made in both.  I have a bakelite one here, but I once bought a pair of metal shells which were somewhat pitted.  I didn't have the skill or patience to restore them, so I sold them to Pete Blanshard.  He probably made them look beautiful.
