1. Good. Polished. Looks presentable but this one must have been very rough and the polisher has had to do a lot of work. There are still a lot of pits, scratches and marks over the surface. Inside the top is still dull and etched. Parts of the embossing are very worn. The inner rear shows signs of etching. OK shelf example. 2. Very Good. Is a bit dull throughout but also has some dust and dirt still on it. A few scratches and scuffs over the surface and the odd little fisheye. Really nice, strong embossing and this is quite a hard to get bottle in this size and English made variation. Grade: N/A Estimate: $60 - 80
