1465 grams is pretty thin. I thought this was a ride cymbal, but based on your text above I'm now guessing its a crash. What size is it?

I apologize for my lack of detail. It's an 18" crash.

Here is a picture of the stamp. I tried the cymbal out. It only took one strike with a stick to know it's WAY too clangy for my taste. I struck it a second time just to make sure and, you guessed it, it's still clangy.

So, I've contacted the seller and informed him I would like to return it, on my dime, for a refund of only the selling price. I'm so bummed! I was hoping it would sound great. I wanted it to be a 50s cymbal. But more than that, I wanted it to sound good. Oh well, I'll just have to keep looking.

Early 1970's.

Drumaholic, thank you for the confirmation. I was thinking the ink stamp had been removed, or it was prior to the ink stamps. My knowledge of Zildjian stamps is fairly limited, but I knew it was a 70s.

When I pulled it out of the box, I thought it might sound good because it felt thin on the shoulder. But, it had an enormous and fairly thick bell that I'm guessing was the cause of it being clangy.

I'm out $26 on the deal, but at least I'm not sitting on a cymbal I don't want that I paid $147 for.
