The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

-The mouth rim is bound by metal; this has not been removed for inspection.
-There are minor losses to small parts of the enamel around the mouth rim.
