Very Good. This one should clean up beautifully as it is mainly just dull/cloudy on the inside. The ground lip is in great condition with just one extremely shallow 5 x 3 mm bruise on the inner front. Flake chip at front base, 6 x 4 mm. Impact mark with tiny flake off it on a rib to the lower right of the badge, 4 x 1 mm. Some minor scuffs and scratches and a few fine fisheyes. Nice early and quite unusual Melbourne jar, we have never seen one in this clear colour before. Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $150 - 200
