Numerous heavier marks and scratches are visible, also some slight dints/bumps. The top of the stained wood section of the handle is a little loose as one of the pins is missing. Both the hinged covers appear in working order and are struck with corresponding part hallmarks. The main hallmarks are clear and legible.
