Excellent. Little rust spot more or less at 12 o'clock on the face. Some light rust and a small manufacturing glaze miss at around 9 or 10 o'clock as well. There are four small chips around the bottom of the flange - 6 x 3 mm, 3 x 2 mm, 2 x 1 mm and 4 x 2 mm - all of these chips are less than 1 mm deep. Also around the flange are a couple of spots of rust. This is a really nice example of quite a scarce lid. Grade: 8 Estimate: $400 - 500
