1. Excellent. A bit of hard residue in the base which may soak out. Tiny nick to front base edge. Tiny surface flake to front shoulder. A few other tiny nicks and some scratches. One or two small flakes to the embossing. 2. Fair. Rear crown has been ground down. This has not been done by a collector hiding a chip, moreso it has been done through extensive wear against something over the year. The lower lip also has deep wear and then a large patch to the body. Chip under left base. Some flakes and impact marks also around the base edge. Deep scratch type mark to right shoulder is a making split. Some fisheyes. Scattered scratches. Quite a hard bottle to get in this amber colouration. Grade: N/A Estimate: $$20.00 - $30.00
