Purchasing information-
The mug appears in fair overall condition, displaying general wear including surface scratches and marks commensurate with the age and use. Also some slight dints and bumps. Heavy tarnishing is visible throughout and it would benefit from a clean and polish. Slight loss of surface detail to some of the decoration. Some likely small solder repairs to the underside of the foot. No personal engravings. The maker's mark is partly worn and the hallmarks also appear rubbed but all are still legible.
