I just bought this drum as a long term orphan project. What finish is it? I love it. i know, the bearing edge is a little sketchy, but I couldn't resist a drum in need. If I did a bad thing, tell me... : )

I haven't gotten yet, but here is the auction that I won. Same drum, owner before me. In the 2nd pic, it appears to be a little more silver. Straight up silver sparkle?

It looks almost identical to the finish on the Kent 9x13 tom I bought on eBay a few months ago.
This photo is not accurate....the drum is more silver-looking than you see here.

Yeah, I saw that, but where did the pic go that had the top of the shell? Didn't this shell look like Galaxy under the hoops?
