What Do I Have Here?

Posts: 4 Threads: 2

I've got an old K. Zildjian 16" Ride/Crash cymbal that was made in Turkey. It weighs in at 1145g. There is a 2" crack in the cymbal that was there 16 years ago when I got it. I've been playing on it ever since and it has not propagated at all. Is it worth something?

I also have this 13" Paiste Stanople Hi-hat that I acquired the same time as the ride.

Every cymbal is worth something. Fortunately , even cracked K's have a market value. I've seen cracked K's ,go for hundreds, simply because they are K's. A 16" is a little light for a ride, so it would really only be valued as a crash and with an existing crack----anyone would be nervous about it but you can always hope and of course it depends on the price you are seeking.
