1. Good. Seen a fair bit of use this one as there is a lot of wear and scratches around the middle of the bottle fitting the definition of crate wear perfectly. Little pits and fisheyes around the base, some more fisheyes in small numbers throughout. It's a solid enough bottle with no major faults, just a bit scruffy (6.3). 2. Good. Does have an 8 x 4 mm chip to the top of the back lip and underneath this is a large 25 x 10 mm bruise. Surface of the bottle has scratches and scuffs and a fair bit of wear to the base. Heavy embossing is worn to the surface. Bottle does display well (6.5). Grade: N/A Estimate: $20 - 30
