    Each dish is quite tarnished and displays general wear and surface marks and scratches. Some deeper scratches in places and some minor nicks/dints, especially to edges and rims. Some floods of solder visible around the joins of the feet to the bases. On one of the dishes the four ball feet each displays a small triangular hole.
