Good. Polished. 2 chips have been polished out of the lip leaving dips. Extensive annealing marks to inner lip. Sliver flake from under applied lip down the neck, this is from making. Dint near base is likely a chip or burst bubble that has been ground out. Some very fine etching remains in places. Embossing is rounded a little, possibly from the polishing process. Nice colour, this has a very slight lime tinge to it. Nice, early Australian bottle. Grade: 6 Estimate: $100 - 150
