Very Good. Looks like the lip has just very slightly been ground and smoothed over. There is a little bit of scuffing and scratching around the surface. Crude bottle with stretching through the neck and loads of bubbles through the glass. Embossing is a little weak in places as is often the case with these. Crude making mark near the front base in the form of a rough patch and a small lump of glass. Nice example of this classic Australian beer bottle. Grade: 7.65 Estimate: $100 - 150
