Bob,

FYI - the original cup in my XVI has a bead rolled into the bottom edge of the cup, giving a profile similar to the knurled bead on the lid.

Not sure how much of a stickler you'll be for such a tiny detail, but I just noticed this myself this morning while poking around my XVI, and thought it worth mentioning...

:)
