1. Very Good. Polished. A bit dull to outer lip, there are scattered fisheyes around here. The rear has two large fisheyes, one is quite dark. Scuffed scratches to the rear which have been smoothed over by the polish job. Some scratches to the front. Scattered fisheyes to the body as well as around the base. Little flake type scratch to base edge. Some minor marks to the embossing. 2. Very Good. Little chip to rear base edge. Some surface dullness throughout, basically light surface wear. Some small fisheyes scattered around. Light scratches. Not sure on rarity on this one, but I do like the way the embossing is so compacted. Also, note the base mark is H B F - someone got the FBH around the wrong way! Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 60
