Yeh, sounds like a Coliseum; does it have 12 lugs? If so, definitely. Also, it's maple on the inside rather than birch.

Great drum!

I don't recall Ludwig offering the 8 inch Coliseum model in 71. I think something is "off". We should maybe see some pics and take a closer look at this before closing this case. Please take some shots of the lugs, the badge, the inside of the shell, the throw, etc. That will help us.
