Very Good. (N/A). Top is firmly in place. Has some dints, can't see the writing on top. Some dust and grime around the tin. Body is solid, some little upper dints. Some wear down the corners and paint flakes, to a lesser extent there are some to the flat sides as well. Some scratches. Generally retained good detail with vibrant colours. A bit of surface corrosion in places. Great little tin in my mind, presumably rare? This is the first we haves sold. Estimate: $200-300
