Legacy York Roundheads had different lettering. I mainly collect/use letter side blobs for this reason. It’s definitive proof of either USA or pre-USA. Number side gets questionable. I'm coming across two distinct looks...at least as far as pictures are concerned. Take a look at the first attached pic. It's black and definitely has some level of fine texture to it. It's not one of mine, but is a representation of what I do have. I'm also coming across blobs that look like the second pic. These appear to be brass-like in color and have a smooth, almost polished surface. At least that's what I'm getting from the various pics I've seen. These two pics are from York, pre-USA blobs from 55 lb dumbbells. Why the difference in color and texture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
