Good. Polished. Couple of nibbled marks to lower part of applied lip. A few small fisheyes to upper lip. Oiled internally. Discoloured fisheye or two. Plenty of fisheyes remaining, impact marks and some scratches. Pitted marks here and there. Surface is smooth in general, around the embossing it is a little more scratched where the polish has not had as much of an effect. Embossing is rounded in places. Quite stained under the base, shows what it would have looked like prior to the polish. Deep scuff to bulged neck is in a flat spot, there has been some grinding work done here to minimise this. Bubble over N below the lion has a slightly fractured part to the upper edge of it on the embossed letter. Grade: 6.8 Estimate: $500 - 750
