Ah, okay. Wonder why the "F" and the "J" keys are 2 piece? On my '87 boards those keys are one piece as well?

F and J are the ones that have tactile bumps so you can find home row by feel. The one piece caps don't have tactile bumps as far as I know, so someone probably put two piece caps on as an upgrade to add those tactile bumps at some point.

FJ being two-piece while the rest is one-piece has been seen before on SSK's. Believe some came from the factory that way.

That's the guy with the recent reddit barn find of 4 ssk's with the interesting legends. There's a thread about it somewhere here...
