Are these OG Cherry dye-sub keycaps?

Hello. I found this keyboard online and asked the seller to send a photo of the back to see the article number, but they haven't replied yet. The keycaps look like OG Cherry dye-subs from
this keyboard, but some legends like '№' are black and there is a homing bar instead of the homing dot on the '5' key on the numpad. There are no homing bars on 'F' and 'J' keys, so this is most likely a G81-3000 or a G80-3000 and not a rubber dome G83.

Looks promising. I'd grab it, if it's reasonably priced. The colour, against the top shell, suggests PBT.

My friend inspected this keyboard personally, it's rubber dome

Thanks for the reply. Have they inspected other keyboards in this warehouse? Have they found anything interesting? I've seen keyboards with white alps and clicky 3rd gen fujitsu leaf springs in the photos.

Well, he took all the more or less interesting keyboards from there

I’d still have taken it. They’re pretty caps. Could be modified by the skilled and determined. Maybe.
