Good. Couple of little impact flakes to rear lip. Line to inner lip is a fold in the glass from making. Rear dimple has an odd making mark at the top of it in the form of several bubbles interspersed with one burst, another at the surface, quite odd really. Impact mark near this next to dimple. Left rear base edge has a deep nibbled chip over about 8 x 6 mm. Dull throughout with stain, scuffs and scratches throughout. This wear is over the embossing as well. Some pitted scratches and spots of deep wear also scattered around, quite a deep but small spot to front upper body in the neck groove on the right side. Impact marks and surface flakes also scattered around. The dull appearance helps the embossing to stand out. This is a very rare codd bottle from a large Tasmanian firm. Grade: 6.6 Estimate: $500 - 750
