Subject: [CR]Paramount lug question

I am looking at pictures of the headtube lugs from a 1970 P-15 (the touring model) Paramount, and the headtube lugs do not appear to me to be Nervex, though the bottom bracket lugs and the seattube lug does appear as nervex.

The headtube lugs look similar to chromed Prugnat lugs; the lugs do not have the sharp points in them like Nervex, have more cut out.

If they aren't Nervex and it is an unrepaired 1970 Schwinn Paramount, or unreplaced (though there probably isn't such a word) headtube lugs and headtube, does anyone know what these lugs are?

Part of the problem is the pictures are not terrible clear too.

Thanks for the help.

Cheers.
