Very Good. A few little nicks to the outer lip. One or two little nicks to inner lip. A couple of streaks to the right shoulder seem to be making marks. Not sure whether this has been polished or not, the upper embossing is flat, but that is the way it was made. Some grime to inner base. Some scratches, a few to the rear do look a little rounded, so this is likely polished in hindsight, a great job though. Some dark spots to the surface which when scraped with the fingernail to come off. A few scuffs and marks. Lovely colour. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $50 - 75
