Sure, run md5sum on the two files, like this:

$ md5sum jdub*
43418bbfc74efc6b94397e427cd3fa32  jdub-face.base64
5c926bcaeeb89add1c4edabffbaca22b  jdub.png

If the md5sums match, then they have exactly the same content.

I doubt they'd come out exactly the same, but that's just a guess. If you
end up doing it, please share the results! :-)
