Very Good. Polished. There may have been some very minor lip work done. Rear shoulder has three or four little impact nicks, under one of these is a 12 mm fracture that is only part way into the glass. Nibbled impact to right base edge. A couple of patches of fine inner haze. Outer surface is smooth, there are a few short pitted scratches and other pit marks to be found and a few fisheyes remaining. Scratches quite evident around the heel, a little scratchy amongst the embossing as well. Slightly reshaped base edge to minimise the nicks and scratches. Some marks to the embossing, it is a tad rounded. Grade: 7 Estimate: $75 - 100
