Searched and found one embossed CV badge photo.

Can you post the link for this embossed CV badge photo?

My HP-41CV with embossed logo is visible on my home page.
Here is a better close picture:

Serial number is 2102A00xxx , so as yours, doesn't follow the SN "rule" for 41CV.
But it has a gold keyboard border and slanted keys *except* the gold shift key which is a tall key, see a picture here.

My best explanation is that the embossed label has been used for pre-production CV machines, that would explain the non-standard characteristics: SN, keyboard border colour, tall keys.

But I would happy to know more, and especially how many machines with embossed logo still exist.
