Was $350 now $250 1980s Zildjian 16" K Dark Crash 1088 EAK

Was $350 now $250
Up for sale is a very rarely seen 1980s Zildjian 16" K Dark Crash weighing in at a nice 1088 grams. No cracks, keyholes or fleabites on this beauty of a cymbal; one edge micro-ding (see photo) The factory K Zildjian stamp (which is very lightly embossed), and the "Dark Crash" ink stamp are upside down on top (see photos). Photos were taken in direct and indirect light to show the hand hammering. I took several photos of the factory stamp to but it is very light. The bell is has some nice light hammering on it. This appears to be an EAK 1980s Dark Crash cymbal judging from the light hammering on the bell, the fine lathing, and the large K on both sides..

This cymbal has great stick articulation and a fantastic dark crash. The 16" EAKs are not super common and certainly not in this good of condition.

Online description;
" K models made when US manufacturing of K’s began in 1982, and is a solid, all-around ride choice for any gig. Standard K Rides feature a traditional randomized hammer pattern, very low curvature, and is made today with a smooth lathing for a little extra give. Its mid-range weight provides solid stick clarity, while also retaining great low crash".
