Very Good (7.5). Oiled, has some inner grime due to the oil and some light haze. Tiny nick to outer lip crown. Little scuff to left shoulder, there is an inclusion under this which has an associated fine fracture over about 6 mm. Tiny nick or two to heel. A few light scuffs and some scratches. Nice, detailed embossing, the trade mark in particular. There are some little nibbles and spots of wear, but most of the embossing is really good. A lovely looking, early crown seal. Estimate: $20-30
