Title: Anyone tell me if these are Cherry Legends?

Looking for some info on the caps that came with a board I bought today, anyone know if these are Cherry legends?

Those look like delicious cherry doubleshots.

Indeed, looks very similar to G80-0929 though the casebody is a bit different. You should open it and see if it has a G80 model on the inside on the PCB. What a nice find. I find it interesting the keycaps are so brilliant looking compared to the casebody. Give it some retrobright loving.

Good idea, I'll grab a screwdriver and report back!

Only identifying mark on the PCB was TH-5150. After looking around it looks like this was some sort of IBM 5150 clone.

Do the keycaps look like Cherry doubleshots on the inside?

And yet that bar still did not run out of usable space...

After all these puns I could do with a drink!

Is there any space at the bar?

That is a really nice keyboard.
Could you take a picture of it with some of the keys taken of? that way it's much easier to tell which switches it uses.
