Thinking of buying this cymbal. Have no idea what year was actually told its 60's. Have a look again at another great cymbal.
Vintage 20" Zildjian 2400gms Help On Year
This cymbal looks 60s to me, and the trademark stamp on it looks like the 60s short based on the pattern of quirks.

2400g is at the heavier end of the range for this production era, so I'd expect it to be a fairly pingy one.

More on expected prices is available where that graph comes from:

but those prices are USA prices and old A prices in Europe and/or the UK may be a bit higher. I haven't got enough quality price data from Europe or the UK to calibrate the pricing model.
Thanks Zenstat
The guy said it sounds lovely so once again ill report back with this and those hi hats when i receive them and the wife says "oh my god what now" hahahahaha love it. Not told her ive had a buying weekend so much for mothers day, i think fathers day is more in order.
The cymbal just for reference weighs in at 2150gms. It is a fab crash ride. Comes from the period where the cymbals were crafted unlike today.
