Condition Report
The flask appears in fairly good overall condition, displaying general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Would benefit from a polish. Slight knock to one shoulder and a few other minor dints. Locking mechanism to hinged lid appears in working order. The hallmarks are clear and legible, some slight rubbing to maker's marks. Also with impressed numbers to the underside.
