Good. Polished. Wear to inner lip. Outer lip is rounded and upper lip a little lop sided to the left, and so it looks like there has been some flakes or chips ground out, a good job with no remnants of the supposed damage. Fine film of inner dust. Little impact flake to left base heel. Little pitted mark next to trade mark. A few fisheyes which are small. Glass is smooth and shiny with only minimal scratches or other marks to be found. Embossing is a bit rounded in places, the embossing below the trade mark is a little hard to read. Some making splits to lower rear lip. Grade: 6.6 Estimate: $100 - 150
