Excellent. (8.2). Lump to inner left lip from making. A bit hazy and dirty internally, this will definitely clean up a fair bit but may still be a bit hazy? Tiny flake to rear base edge. Couple of spots of wear to base edge and a nick or two. Some usage wear to the heel. Short, deep scratch to upper left rear. Some other fine scratches and minor marks. Tiny flake to one of the heavily embossed leaves. Superb item which is very rare, this is the first we have sold. Estimate: $100-200
