The hip flask displays general surface scratches, contact marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Some quite heavy tarnishing to some areas and would benefit from a polish.

The main hallmarks are clear and legible, also part hallmarks to hinged section and removable cup. Those on the cup are quite worn but still legible.
