I have a 16" Paiste Formula 602. It has the engraved Paiste stamp as well as a stamp with the serial #935549. It also has the black Paiste Formula 602 ink stamp and a red ink stamp that reads "Thin Crash". Does anyone know when this cymbal was produced?

It is from 1979 assuming only a 6 digit serial only and no stamped "PAISTE" with it. The normal moon and shooting star Formula 602 stamped logo is present on all Formula 602 cymbals.
Congrats on a nice cymbal. Thin crashes from that era are fairly rare as they were somewhat likely to break under heavy hitting. Paperthins are extremely rare. The thins are extremely tonal, clean and have great cut along with that fantastic Paiste shimmer.
