Condition Report
All three cases display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with their age and use. Some dints and bumps, mainly visible to the two earlier cases. The smaller case, in particular, is in fairly poor condition and the metal appears very thin on one side and can easily be pushed in and out. All hinges and clasps appear in working order, some slight gaps when closed. The hallmarks are all clear and legible.
