Very Good. Tiny lip nick. 5 mm nibbled scratch to upper part of front lip ring. Some very fine scratches to a small part of the inner neck. The N of bottling has a burst bubble through it over about 14 x 7 mm. This is discoloured and looks to have had part of it filled with resin. Some inner dirt that will clean out. Tiny nick to rear base edge. Usage wear under base. Small open bubble to lower front left. Some scratches and a few minor scuffs and marks. Great embossing, apart from the burst bubble, this also only has minor marks. A lovely example of this classic New Zealand beer bottle. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $150 - 200
