Two complete stamps in two different locations? Yes. Two complete stamps which overlap? Yes. They come up for sale now and again. Perhaps less than 1 in 400, but once you have tracked thousands of sales you start to get a handle on rare events. In addition to two of the same stamp, some cymbals have stamps which represent two different production eras, as in a late 50s and a 60s. Some have more than two stamps. Some have partial stamp impressions overlying a complete stamp. And some have no stamps. Here is an overlapping of a Hartrick late 50s small stamp and a mid 50s Hartrick Large Stamp Type II:

On average every Avedis Zildjian cymbal has one. :2Cents:

I too have had one in my hands. Seems like it had a late 50's stamp and a 60's stamp.
