Here is one of the best sounding and ugliest cymbals we have ever found. We don't normally list cymbals with this much damage to the plate but this cymbal sounds so good that we want to find it a new home. There is no stamp on the cymbal. It must have been cut out with the edge repair. We attribute it to K. Zildjian based on the bell shape, hammer marks, and tonal quality. It has a beautiful, warm, even distribution of overtones that will sound beautiful as a suspended cymbal in and orchestra or concert band. There is some keyholing along with the extra holes and edge repair. This is a great opportunity to own a fine old cymbal at a steal of a price. The person that rescues this cymbal and puts it back to work won't be sorry.
