What Astatic model is this?

[Tokin]

The back which doesn't fit right says 555. The problem is this back uses the old style star shaped removable stem and the mic has a stem built in the the potentiometer and the diameter is larger than the hole. Also the mic grill is convex where i thought the 555 and 557 were concave.
Im guessing with out the proper back the only way to confirm the model is by the switch wiring? I believe this is an M6, maybe first gen judging by the 7.5v battery use but can't find an example with a back that will fit properly to confirm.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

looks line an older/original-style 575-M6 or a d104 as I look through some more pictures here on line.

I thought that too. Is this a newer model with a fixed potentiometer stem? All the minuteman 2 examples i see have the white plastic star like shaped one piece knob and shaft and astatic is raised lettering on the face. This one is a bit different with the printed nameplate and a 2 piece stem and knob but still using the 7v battery.

Te one you have, has a newer logo sticker on the front. It could also be a TMD-107E. Hard to say, without the proper rear cover. If I had the mic here in front of me, maybe I could tell, by looking at the cartridge, PCB etc.
