I would appreciate an evaluation of one of my cymbals, a 20" Avedis Zildjian, weight 2745 g with 3 rivetholes and one rivet and quite serious key-holing :

I would like to know it's age and it's value, if possible.
Thanks in advance

That's a 60s A. I think that's about a $150 cymbal max because of the weight. Maybe more like $125.
I agree with blueprint completely!

Ok, great, thanks.
How about this one : Also Avedis Zildjian 20" 2172 g ?

This one with the smudge on the stamp looks to be an early 70s..
Is there any ink logos or even faded ink logos on this cym..?
Is there any faded stamp that shows made in USA or CANADA.?
I would say value @$150 because of its weight..(light to med)
**The other one (is a 60s I would suggest that because of its heavier weight and keyholing..its closer to an even $100/.
Have anymore.?
Bop iT / Til U Drop iT.light seems to be the thing these days..
but don't go sanding it..lololol
the 50s / 60s light series are worth @20% more..
eg..60s 20" ride at 1850/1900grms is rare and sounds amazing..
Rivits are the players choice...personally I like them..

There's no logos on the cymbal and no other stamps that I can find under the grime.
Yeah, I have a lot more.
Tomorrow I'll shoot my K. Zildjians, same time period I guess.
Now it's television time in my part of the world. Excited
With that fairly heavy weight for a 20" and bad keyholing, I'm thinking more around $100. I recently bought a 20" 60s, from Sam Ash in Springfield NJ, with a weight between 2000g and 2100G with no rivet holes and no keyholing for $115.
