Excellent. A bit of misprint on the lower part of the cup to the Coat of Arms side. Some light spots of stain and crazing amongst the pieces. Price (1/6) on the bottom of the plate. Lovely group. Part of the same (mostly complete) set from last auction consigned to us with instructions to split it up to give a wider number of people a chance to own pieces of this historically interesting commemorative china.
