I hate to say this but I dropped one of my SM57s on the floor in the studio for about the 5000th time and the capsule broke off.
I mean - this mic is only 35 years old. Where's the quality in this type of construction.

Just having some fun. Next to an old RCA ribbon mic I can't identify this was the oldest mic in my locker.
I bought the SM57 for $23.50 in 1967 and it has served me well on stage and in the studio.
Now if I can find some duct tape I'm going to fix it.
