The only difference from the first version is the webbing or re-enforcing you see where the foot comes out of the body/housing is significantly bigger.
The 444A reels are early 1964 with the brass nameplate which when you look inside has two small legs that are bent over to hold it on the plate. The reel stayed the same till 1974 but the name plate was fixed and finished in silver.
You should have serial numbers on the top of the reel foot where it also has molded into the foot "Product Of Sweden" post the serial numbers and I can date them to the month they were made, if you struggle to see the numbers then rub some talcum powder over them, then gently wipe of the excess with a dry cloth leaving behind and much more visible the serial number.
