Please can any body advise on speaker celestion that has chasis leg code: 029JB, it is T1281. It says 15ohm too. It doesn't have the magnet cover with spec wheater it is G12H (25 or 30w) or G12M. I need to know this plus I would like to know year. It doesn t correspond to charts in Bygonotes exactly.

even if it doesn't match up to the listed info on bygonetones' site, it's worth emailing them with some pictures and asking if they can help. i've found them very helpful in the past.
i wouldn't use it over 5-10w until you're sure what the quoted power handling is, as you never know if its actually a g12s/g12l and was never rated for more than about 15-20w. plus old celestions should be used conservatively anyway.
