Good. Difficult one to grade as it is in superb condition in general - except for one minor technicality - it has had a 7 mm hole drilled into the rear for some reason? The lip has a few little nicks. Little scrape through glaze to front right shoulder. Rear shoulder on the upper edge has a glaze flake. Flake to rear base edge is a little nibbled. Scuffed scratches down right side. A few minor nicks around base edge. Some glaze scratches to be found. Would grade in the high 7s without the hole, with the hole we are still grading this at 6.5. A superb rarity as well, can't recall ever seeing one of these for sale. Grade: 6.5 Estimate: $$250.00 - $350.00
