There are a few very minor little knocks and dings around the main body in general, conducive with age and use, otherwise the condition is good. Marks fairly clear although date letter and maker's mark showing some rubbing. No engravings. No obvious evidence of any erasures, however the silver gauge on both sides appears slightly thinner than the centre.
