I have this 10" celestion speaker that originally came out of a Murphy A172R radiogram. I am not sure what the specs are but have attached some photos. If it is any good to you its yours FOC. There are some cone issues which would be easily repairable. Somewhere I have an identical one which is in better condition which I could see if I can find if you are interested.

EDIT: looking at the service notes for the A172R radiogram they give the spec of each of the two speakers used in the set as being 3 ohms. Send me a PM if interested.
