I think that someone replaced the speaker in your 430-H, the original one would have had a rectangular rear bracket holding the pole piece, field coil, and hum bucking coil, yours has one with a round bracket kind of like a Rolla or Lansing, and looks like it's painted gold so it may have come out of a Zenith or something else. The reason I think so is that the speaker cable looks like it was cut, spliced, and wrapped with friction tape. A guy on You Tube called farmall1938 has a restoration series for a 420-H which is a similar but cheaper model then your 430-H but more importantly his still has the plastic dial escutcheon that is missing from yours and the original Stromberg made speaker.

If that did come out of a Zenith you could very likely find someone willing to trade you not only a correct Stromberg Carlson speaker but maybe a 1939 Stromberg parts set for it. But at the very least it looks close enough electrically that it should work in the meantime.

Great song played on that 1959 Philco Stereo Hi-Fi !
Your videos are always entertaining while also being informative.
