Rating Definition:

Fine, retaining 40% original case colors with the balance a silver patina, a mix of brown and grey patina on the barrels and some areas of light spotting/pitting. Overall mild handling evidence. The revarnished wood is very good with some dings and scratches and well-defined checkering. Mechanically excellent.
