Very Good. Interestingly, this is an error bottle with the word TRADE clearly spelt TRARE. A couple of short pitted scratches to inner lip. Little flake near rear dimple and a small impact near this as well. Another nick near the other rear dimple. Front dimple has a small flaked spot too. Tiny nick to rear body. Little flake to rear base edge, little nick around from this and a nibbled section along the heel which looks more like a making mark, but may be a scrape mark of some sort. Some scuffs and scratches, mainly around the shoulder. Embossing is flaked and worn in places, but heavy. Probably a bit over half of the letters at the front have some form of flaking. A nice shiny example in general that looks great and is highly unusual with the spelling mistake. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $100 - 150
