Condition Report
All the covers display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with their age and use. Heavier tarnishing visible to some areas and they would all benefit from a clean and polish. General dints and bumps and some larger dints to one of the smaller covers. Some small areas where the plating is worn and the copper is showing. Contact marks visible around the holes for the handles. The crests are likely engraved on silver as an 'inlet' patch is visible around each one.
