your guess may be as good as ours....they may be a couple different bands.

Could be CB or VHF Lo band or 6m. Larsen makes a LOT of bases and coils for almost every frequency range.
CK hit the nail on the head...
here is a linky to the larsen low band vhf
Amazon product ASIN B004Z9416Q
which as you can see it is identical looking on the outside as the hf one i posted above.
the 6m is below:
Amazon product ASIN B004XQUEQC
the difference is in the winding of the coil, that is the number of turns for the fraction of the wavelength being produced.

I have a Larsen coil marker "Special". It is for a wideband scanner antenna they make...it is not made for transmitting. It is a triband monitor antenna, covering VHF-UHF-800 megs. I own one of these for RX purposes.
However, the coil is a shorter one, about 1" or so in height.
I have also owned a taller coil (about 3" tall) that was made for 27-30 mHz, but that was marked as an NMO-27.
