Numerous deeper scratches and nicks are visible to all, also heavier wear around edges. Slight surface dints and bumps visible to some of the bowls. More wear is visible to the tips of the bowls and the metal feels quite thin in some areas. The tips of some of the bowls are quite worn down, especially on the George III spoons. Some rubbing, especially to maker's marks, however all the hallmarks are still legible.
