This one has the intermediate stamp, was made between 1959 and 1966. The value depends very much on the weight..

Under 2000 grams for a 20 is very nice!

That keyhole is pretty extreme but as long as it's not spider cracking it should be fine as is...

Found it!!

My pricing research is here: http://black.net.nz/old-k/old-k-prices.html#20

Prices in Europe are likely to be a bit different from USA prices. I do not yet have enough data from K Zildjian Istanbul cymbals to calibrate the difference. I am generalizing from other price tracking research. And I haven't yet gone back and done a fresh analysis which includes weight for 20" cymbals in the predictive modelling. Again based on other diameters (18" where I have more data on K Zildjian Istanbul cymbals) and other sorts of cymbals (old As and 602s), there is a price advantage to lighter cymbals once you get to 18" and larger.

Thank you Zenstat, and take to you all guys

So, considering key hole on bell, 200$ (sellers price) is good?

200 would be a major steal.

Assuming you mean US$, 800-1000 would be more typical.

I thought maybe you just came across it in the street :) ...but $200 is kinda the same thing. Hope you get it and it sounds as good as it looks!
