Mint. Basically an unused piece with some crazing and minor marks from manufacture. As far as we know no-one has ascertained why these were made. They seem to be part of a series made by Pearson's pottery in England using old stamps. Some sort of souvenir items or similar? Whatever the case it doesn't seem like many were made as only a few different ones have turned up. Interesting item. Grade: 9.9 Estimate: $80 - 120
