Extremely Fine. The stamp is very faded and indistinct, somewhat wrinkled and may once have been waterlogged. The mica is clear in a direct light, with just minor separation showing, principally at the bottom. The case is quite attractive, toned a nice golden brown, with considerable original silvering still remaining. |
