1. Poor. Polished. This has slipped in the tumbler and heavily worn the lip and base region. From the bottom of the trade mark down the wear must have gone through the embossing, as the current embossing and seams below this point have been put back on by removing glass around the letters, yes, this writing is not the original embossing! Plenty of scratches, scuffs and pitted marks. 2. Very Good. Scuffs and scratches scattered around with some fisheyes and impact marks. A few pitted marks. Little surface flake to lower neck. A few annealing marks to lip and neck. A little dull. Grade: N/A Estimate: $30 - 40
