To the best of my recollection, that is an Epiphone neck humbucker.

You might want to look at the bottom of these Epi HBs. Specifically, the picture on the right of the trio:

Note that your original post stated, "BHC", hence my original response. Notwithstanding, odds are, they're probably both out of the same factory any way.

The "BHC" is an acronym that translates into Mandarin as the "Peoples' Electric Guitar Pickup Factory Of Beijing".
