What is the key between R1 and R2 on the 275xxx-era 10M?

Gayle's got a good pic of that keywork at vintagesax.com.

It's the G# trill. If you play a normal G#, that key will raise and then you can use your right hand to trill from G# to G. This was done because it is almost impossible to trill a non-articulated G#.
