Excellent. 3 x 3 mm chip to the outer edge of the right lip. Some slight contents stain inside. Very minor marks externally. Great bottle with the Skull & Crossbones embossed. We have sold a similar sized example before (Auction 28, Lot 695) but that one had some issues and also it turns out was a variation with "George Street" also embossed. This is a superb example of a highly desirable bottle. Grade: 8.5 Estimate: $500 - 750
