Yes Dean, the engraving of the doll's head on BHE and A-1 Special Parker Reproductions is indeed different from the cross-hatches as seen on the DHE-grade.

The first pic below is a 20ga. Parker Reproduction BHE on a 0-frame, it is Parker Repro B-grade throughout. You'll notice the Repro B-grade style engraved top lever, doll's head and barrel wedges.

The second pic below is the same gun shown previously in this thread, a 4/0-frame BHE .410 with DHE-style engraving, a BHE-style engraved top lever, BHE wood and DHE barrels.

EDIT: For comparison purposes the middle pic was added to show an original Parker Bros. 12ga. BHE.
