Very Good. Tiny nick to front lip edge. Nibbled surface flakes which are small to lower front lip, some more below the front dimple, then the upper body has another small flake. Little bruise in front dimple. Some scuffed scratches down the front. Another scuffed scratch to rear shoulder and lower down the rear too. Some other scratches and small scuff marks. Embossing is strong, but the trade mark and lower embossing is flat on the top points and terribly smooth! It has been buffed in this region for some reason, there is no other explanation for it. As to why, I don't know? The rest of the bottle is shiny and natural, so there was no need for it? Little nibbled flake to the upper embossing. A fabulous looking bottle, harder to get in this style with the rear embossing. Grade: 7.1 Estimate: $30 - 50
