Mint. If there is a better example of this bottle I would like to see it. There is an indent on the inner lip as part of manufacture (covered in glaze). If you hold the bottle so light comes across it you might just see a fine surface scratch or two but that is it. Absolutely superb. If you are after the best for your collection this is the bottle. As good as the day it was made ! Grade: 9.6 Estimate: $500 - 750
