Condition Report
The goblet displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Some of the decorated areas display darker tarnishing. Deeper scratches to some areas and various minor nicks. Slight loss of detail to decoration. Slight knock to foot rim. Slight crack in metal is visible at the join of the base of goblet to top of stem. Interior was probably once gilded, but this is now faded. The main Portuguese hallmark around the top is clear and legible, however the other struck marks are more difficult to read.
