Cymbal ID? Zildjian laser stamp I think, no serial

[StewartCropeland]

Curious what this is. The stamp looks like a laser engraving, but there's no serial, and I thought they started doing both at the same time. Someone's selling it cheap, basically trying to figure out if it's worth driving all the way over there. Listed as 20" ride.

Looks like a REMIX prototype, since it’s lathed and buffed… and a wrong/bad file in laser engraver, since the “J” and the “D” and “O” aren’t filled in properly and there’s no Oven #. Probably made for an Artist, because those things get rushed sometimes.

If you go look, keep in mind it could also be a non b20 beginner line. Some of them had hammering patterns similar to that, but I can’t remember any that deep looking. Would explain a non standard stamp and low price

A zxt rock ride looks like a likely candidate for the same hammering

This is right, I was wrong.

We spend so much time looking at the cool stuff, we forget about the mundane. I still can’t find a picture of a zxt stamp without a serial number either but the hammering looks dead on

Right!!! I thought this crowd was only only allowed to showcasing holy grail pies here!!! Stump the chumps…

The laser engraving is only a partial though, that would occur occasionally.

It appears to me the serial number might have been lightly stamped. There does appear to be a "0" under the "A" in USA.
Closer inspection might show additional numbers.

Thanks everyone! I totally wanted this to be something extra cool for $80. Confirmation bias in action
