Excellent. There is a chip under the front the base that is 6 x 5 mm and 1 mm deep. To the left of this is another shallow flake that is 3 x 2 mm. Also around the edge of the quite sharply finished base are a handful of other marks where the glaze has just flaked off but all pin-prick type size. On the underside of the top is another glaze flake just over 1 x 1mm. The top of the lip has a few tiny pinprick marks to the glaze. Some minor stained spots and a few scuffs but overall this is a nice clean Ginger Beer, much better than average. Grade: 8.4 Estimate: $75 - 100
