Nice collection. That MK pro is a lovely sounding instrument. Gwen Grace does wonders with it.

The pic is a bit blurry but it looks like the Goldies are stamped "C" and the Susatos are stamped "D".

Could you post a clearer photo? Thanks!

In fairness,rotate the photo 90 degrees counter clockwise and it's clearly a 'D'

Whit the 7th hole I can play C nat. The whistle has also an hole on the back, you can see it in the picture below, to play F nat too. So it is like a "double" whistle that you can play both in the key of D or in the key of C.
Goldie make these kinds of whistles.
