Hoping to have your help once more. Please take a look at the photos and if possible tell me anything you can. I have a few similar cymbals that I have found to compare to just need an experts opinion.
Thank you,

Where abouts do you live..?
Canada,?
I've seen this pic before..
Bop iT / Til U Drop iT.K. Zildjian Constantinople, probably from the 1930's The writing on the back of the bell says the same thing only in Latin script.
I live in grand rapids Michigan was hoping that the symbols had a little value to them can you please tell me a ballpark idea what you're worth
the size is 12 3/4 "
did you measure across the BOTTOM of the cymbal? (as you should)...
yes measured bottom
photos attached believe weighs 905 grams
The grommet in the bellhole tells me that this is an orphaned marching band cymbal. This means its a heavier type than a drum set type. That translates into less interest. In this size it's the drum set players that would be your market. Drummers will buy the heavier ones and adapt them for use as hi-hats. But unfortunately this size is too small for that. So I think you be doing well if you could get somebody to pay you $100 for this piece. Comparables are essentially non-existent, so would be an estimate. There's just not a much of an interest in the smaller and heavier ones like this.
If you had a 16" or larger it would be a completely different story. But keep fishing around...maybe you'll find one.
