The wire is rusty. There is some dust and grime throughout. Light scuffs around the shoulder, there is a horizontal scratch near the shoulder at the rear, this also comes around to the front on closer inspection amongst the embossing. A few other light scuffs and scratches. Nice example of this Australian Fruit Jar. Grade: 8.5 Estimate: $40 - 50
