Condition Report
The mug displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Some small surface dints and bumps. Quite dense pitting visible to the interior base. Slight loss of surface detail to some of the decoration but the engraving is still fairly good. It wobbles a little when in the standing position. The hallmarks, located to the underside, are clear and legible.
