Condition Report
Both mugs display some general wear including surface scratches and marks. Quite heavy tarnishing is visible, especially to the Sheffield mug, however both would benefit from a clean and polish. The Sheffield example also displays some slight surface dints and knocks to rims and the hallmarks are quite rubbed and distorted and only partly legible. The hallmarks to the 1920's mug are clear and legible.
