Superior / Aerated // Mineral / Water. 2 near point of base. Aerated Water Torpedo Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 235 mm. 1870s-1880s
Good. Annealing marks on inner lip. Fracture running down from mid blob top, down about 40 mm down the neck. This only catches the light on certain angles. Top and edge of the lip has some nibbles, flakes and a shallow chip. Surface is just slightly scuffy and scratched. Embossing is spectacularly strong, there are a few minor flakes and a bit of minor wear. Nice early torpedo. Grade: 6.9 Estimate: $40 - 60
