Lot 863: Beer. Cohn Bros Ltd, Bendigo. Wrap top. Green. 26 oz. (Victoria)

Good. (6.9). Polished. Although it is nigh on impossible to see, the light just refracts on the inner right lip as if there may be a fine bruise there, maybe about 10 mm long, but hard to measure something that you can barely see. Couple of tiny nicks to lower lip. Couple of surface bubbles around the rear shoulder. White mark to outer ring on lower right is a small inclusion with no associated damage, higher up the ring has a little impact nick. 33 x 14 mm flat flake to left front heel, this has been ground over a bit to lessen its edges and blend it in. Small nibbled impact under base from this. Remains of some scuffs and scratches. Nice and shiny throughout, the embossing remains quite good and distinct. A very rare bottle, this is the first one we have ever sold. Looks great, would be a great addition to the best of beer collections.. Estimate: $2000-2500
