Condition Report
The mug is very tarnished all over. There are general surface marks and scratches and wear commensurate with the age and use. There is a dint to one side of the beaded rim so that it is very slightly misshapen. There are also some minor nicks in the metal in places and some wear to the gilded interior. Hallmarks are clear, maker's mark is very distorted but just about legible. Stamped number to underside 9592.
