In fair condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The hinged lid of the 1901 example does not shut fully flush. The lid of the 1906 example wobbles because of a repair to the hinge which has been replaced with a metal bar. Minor dents to the corners. The hinged lid of the card case is loose and the case has become slightly squashed. Hallmarks slightly rubbed but clear and legible.
