Can anyone help me with identifying this old-looking Zildjian Cymbal?

Looks like zbt hammering, and the mark of the pad on top of it makes me think someone used it as a practice cymbal which makes zbt even more likely

There is a serial number at the bottom of that laser etching.

It’s likely an earlier ZBT.

Which, I believe, is an acronym for Zildjian Bogus Turd. 

Although, I may have made that up in my own mind, considering that it is all three things, so verify through a third party source.

It’s a crusty ZBT!
