Good. Couple of annealing marks to inner lip. Right base edge has a sliver flake over 30 mm. Scrape mark around from this. The NZIE of McKenzie has scuffed scratches across them including impact flakes and one has a semi-circular shallow bruise from it as well. Pitted scratch across the O of Launceston. Scuffed scratch down rear and some scuffed marks towards rear base. Patch of inner stain. Tiny flake to front left base edge. A few tiny fisheyes. Some other scuffs and scratches. Embossing is a bit light, but actually heavier than usual at the same time. Solid example of this scarce bottle. Grade: 6.7 Estimate: $50 - 75
