Purchasing information-
The tankard is in reasonable/fair good condition. There are surface scratches, small dents and dints, and areas of tarnish to the whole. There is a small circular hole in the underside of the top of the handle. The inside of the tankard is discoloured and also carries some more noticeable imperfections and possible signs of repair. There is an engraved monogram on the front which is very worn. There are bends to the top and bottom rims. The hallmark is slightly rubbed, the sponsor's mark even more so, but all are legible. The tankard wobbles slightly on its base. There are cracks visible to the inside of the tankard, especially to where the handle meets the tankard.
