Excellent. Although not a rare bottle, this is rare in this condition. Found under a house, this still had the contents when found. Around the upper mid body is a series of little dinted marks, which look like they have bits of sand in them, this is a making fault which adds to the crudity of this piece. Some light scratching to the rear, which is concentrated over these marks. A bit of fine dust internally. A few fine fisheyes and scattered light scratches. Embossing is great with only a minor mark or two. The best of these that we have seen. Grade: 8.5 Estimate: $100 - 150
