Good. Actually a pretty good bottle but has an 11 x 9 mm chip to the right hand side top and a fracture that runs about 20 mm from this along the top of the lip towards the back. There is some minor rust stain and few little scuffs and scratches. Print is smudged and the glaze has been put on way too thick near the front base. There are a couple of little glaze misses right at the front base as well. Smalll flake under rear base edge. Very crudely made ginger beer, displays well as the top/lip damage is all towards the back. Grade: 6.9 Estimate: $40 - 60
