N/A. (N/A). 1. Good. Polished. Still has a bit of a dull appearance. Looks to have been some minor upper lip work done. Little upper lip bruise and split. Remains of some etching in places, this would have been etched all over prior to the polish. Remains of fisheyes and impact marks as well. Some nibbled impacts and wear to some of the embossing. 2. VG. Some grime which will soak off. Tiny flake to rear lip. Dark nibbled surface impact to front right chamber. Discoloured surface bubble to inner chamber. Couple of small discoloured fisheyes to front upper right. Some other little discoloured fisheyes to be found. Scuffed scratch to lower right. Some other scuffs and scratches to be found. A little wear to the embossing in places. A bit oif light dullness, not sure if this is the grime. 3. Good. Polished. Irregular surface bubble to mid rear. Burt bubble to mid right. Little nibbled mark to bottom of front lip. Remains of pitted impact marks and fisheyes. Plenty of pitted scratches scattered around as well. Some scuffs and other marks. A bit of crate wear to some of the embossing. A few splits around the lip from making. Very hard to get in this small size. 4. Good. Heavy grime which will soak off. 14 x 14 mm deep bruise to right rear mid neck. Some stain. A few deep scratches. Some other scratches and scuff marks. Strong embossing has little spots of wear and a few nibbled impacts but is good in general. 5. Good. Hazy throughout. I have a feeling this may have been coated in something at some stage, it has a little bit of a discoloured appearance. 5 x 4 mm nibbled impact flake to left rear base edge. Some little fisheyes and impact marks. Extensive scratches and scuffs scattered throughout, including some deeper examples. Embossing has some little impacts and a bit of high point wear as well.
