New number.

Also, I'm not entirely sure the toggle latch is silver soldered. I was always under the impression that it is a hard-press fit sufficient to compress the metal surface enough to cause the halo effect.

You may very well be correct. But I have never seen the halo effect without some deformation of the adjacent metal. The area around the toggle latch is dead flat. I am not entirely sure either but I err on the side of silver solder.
