Good. Solid example that needs a good wash and probably a polish. Some internal dirty stain. At the front left base edge is a 16 x 10 mm chip with a scratch coming off this under the base. At the other end of the scratch on the base edge is a small rusty nibbled section. On the top of the lip just behind where the left seam line would run is a 7 x 5 mm shallow chip. There is another 45 mm long deeper scratch on the back of the bottle from the base upwards. The heavy embossing has some flakes and wear. Surface is scuffed and scratched with some small pit marks / fisheyes mainly towards the base, with scuffs and scratches heaviest around the upper body / shoulder area. Rare and spectacular internal thread, well worth a professional clean. Grade: 6.7 Estimate: $1000 - 1250
