Purchasing information-
The coasters display general wear including surface scratching, contact marks and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Several dints and bumps to both. On one of the coasters, the wooden base has partly come away from the silver mount and would require some attention. Also a slight split is starting to appear along a seam line. The wooden base on the other is a little loose but still fully in the mount. The hallmarks appear a little rubbed but are still clearly legible, slight distortion to one of the maker's marks. Part hallmarks of a lion passant and maker's mark to silver discs, these are quite worn on one of the coasters.
