Looks like a standard BC-1004. My guess is that there is, or should
be, a tiny decimal point added to make it read 2.5 - 5.0, 5.0 - 10.0,
and 10.0 - 20.0 mcs.
Take a closer look at the bandswitch skirt, might require a magnifier
if the paint is worn or dull. Maybe take a close up shot and add it to
your site so that we can take a peek.
That's my guess -
