Condition Report
The box appears in good overall condition, displaying general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing. The tarnishing appears heavier in between some of the decorated areas. A little bit more wear to edges and corners and the plain underside displays some deeper scratches and marks. Hinged lid is in working order. The struck mark '84' within a circular punch is clear but the other struck mark is fairly indistinct.
