(Sunrise) / (Australian Coat of Arms) / Advance Australia. Embossed underneath: IV. Pot Lid Cap Black print on a white cap. Size 4. 48 mm diameter. 1880s
Excellent. Crazing throughout which is slightly discoloured in places. On the right side there is a tiny discoloured nick to the outer, lower rim. Below this is a small curved discoloured crazed line. Around the lower ribbed outer rim is a discoloured crazed line as well. Couple of tiny nicks to inner rim. A couple of tiny scratches and minor marks. A rare Melbourne found piece, some people say that this was made for Dr. L. L. Smith who had pot lids with the Australian coat of arms. None have been found with a label though, so this is purely conjecture. Grade: 8.3 Estimate: $250 - 350
