Paiste`s alloy s are all basically B8 or other combinations other than B20 except for the new Paiste 20s as far as I know

Here is the strange image that appears on the top of the cymbal. Once again it is a perfectly mirrored image of the Paiste logo that is stamped on the bottom of the cymbal.

One train of thought is when at the factor they stacked the cymbals on top of each other, right after they were labeled, and i think that is truly the culprit, take another of your black labeled cymbals and see if the logos will match up just rest your mind,

Although I have heard that heating a cymbal is not good for it (some bury theirs, for better or worse might change the sound, so heat???), if they bake the logo paint like they do car paint the paint underneath could have a baked look. If they paint, stack and then bake in that order.

paiste's last finishing process for a cymbal is logoing the cymbal, the only heat was from the original forging and lathing, this is done way before the final stamping of the logo

I can post a pic of it Monday but it is so faint I'm not sure it will show. I don't think it is a faded stamp on top because it is a perfectly mirrored image of the logo on the bottom which makes it backwards on top. By the way I do like the cymbal a lot. The added weight (medium) gave the darker sound that I like in a cymbal. I don't think it is a good match to my Giant Beat crashes so until I can find The 20" Medium I will stick with my current setup.
I had a Paiste 3000 from the 80's that was just like that, exactly backwards faint ink logo on the bottom directly underneath the ink logo on the top. Like someone said, it must have been stacked or something.
