They look like 70's thin stamps to me, but I'm just starting to get into recognizing the subtle differences between some of Zil's stamps.
Experts please correct me if I'm wrong (and explain too). :)

[COLOR="DarkRed"]No 3-dots inside thhe squiggly arabic "U"...and the lettering on the Zildjian characters is very thin.....
...yes, you got it !
70's.
Thumbnail summary (there are more differentiations, but as a point of quick departure):
If there were 3 dots inside the U, then it's likely a '60s' (then you go to the height of the entire embossment to determine early or late '60's).
If it is sans dots in the U, but the lettering of the Zildjian name is broader, then you have a late '50's. If the lettering of the Zildjian name is block lettering, it is an earlier '50's.
...the "trans-stamp" late 40's preceding that, has heavily impressed Z and O at the beginning and end of "Zildjian Co."[/COLOR]
