The gold displays general light wear and surface marks and scratches, with some larger scratches visible to the underside and some contact marks around the rim.  Also contact marks to the flange and a couple of minor rim nicks.  There is considerable damage to the lid.  It appears to be enamel but is very thin in appearance so it is possibly not.  There are cracks, a couple of tiny pieces missing and some loose pieces.  Hallmarks to the underside are very clear, also inscribed 28/100.
