Marshall Silver Jubilee series
taken from here, which also says

"If I am not mistaken, these speakers were different from the present-day Vintage 30 speakers, but I could be wrong. In my memory they sounded harsher, more trebly. I never liked these speakers in the combo format, but when I later put the speakers in a 4x12 cabinet with two G12T75 speakers, the results was a great sound with a lot of fat bottom end and enough bite to cut through the loudest band. "
 
see i read a few like that and also a few that said they are v30 just with marshall sticker on instead of celestions. Said it was just a diffrent sticker marshall put on it. Im wondering cause this marshall 1960av cab has these and i might get but i want cab with v30!
 
I'll take the pepsi coke challenge with that cab anyday with the one I own:

Buy Crate BV412SVB 4x12 Angled Cab with Vintage 30 Speakers at Musician's Friend

And there is no guessing as to whether or not this has actuall vintage 30s in it. Also it's rugged as fuck I flipped a car doing 70 2 times with this in the back all that happened was some ripped tolex. It is however the only good thing crate makes period :(
 
I was going to say Vintage 30's cant even save CRATE.....but i guess if you say its good
