Very Good. (7.7). Some making pinprick type marks to upper lip, looks like there may be one tiny sliver as well. Some fine inner dirt should soak out. Around the should are a few lines of scratches which are marginally pitted in places, yet not at all deep. 3 mm scuffed scratch next to D at front lower right. Tiny surface bubble near front base edge, another very small one amongst the badge at the front. Scratches scattered around, nothing deep though. Wonderful whittle throughout, this is like some of the other beer bottles of that era in that it has fine fibres through the glass from making. An exceptionally rare and important Victorian beer bottle, we have never sold one of these before!. Estimate: $2500-3500
