Rest of the bottle presents well with light dullness throughout. Some minor marks. A shallow burst bubble to the side. A few pinprick marks to the lip. (5.9). 2. Crystal is Very Good. A bit of dullness. Some scratches and scuffs. Very shallow chip off the underside of the applied top at the back. Nice looking bottle. (7.8) Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 60
