1: Good. Dull and worn all over leaving a matt looking finish to the bottle. Some deeper scratches mainly to be seen to the back and sides fortunately. Embossing is worn and weak in parts but generally nice and clear. Some little nibbles and flakes around the lip and a manufacturing fold. Cork put in the top to keep the dust out. Solid enough example that looks good as an "old looking" example of a Fosters beer. 2: Fair. Dull and heavily worn. 8 x 9 mm shallow chip to the front lower part of the top. Under the front base is a deep 13 x 10 mm chip that has come from a burst bubble. Pitting and small impact marks evident on the surface. Some remains of barnacles and the like can be seen on the surface. A nice decorative item as an old looking example of a Clear F Fosters beer. Grade: N/A Estimate: $30 - 40
