Excellent. Some fine impurities in the surface of the glass on one side. A little scuff or two. At first glance thought it had been polished but not entirely sure as the impurities area seems like it would be a bit smoother if it had. Perhaps just very lightly cleaned. In any case a superb example of a very rare and attractive goldfields bottle. Grade: 8.9 Estimate: $1200 - 1800
