CONDITION DETAILS

All but one of the marked plates have had the entire backs of the rims sprayed (good job), masking I don’t know what... no sign of trouble on the fronts; the other one has a small rim chip and another to the foot-rim; one unmarked plate restored in a similar way; some stacking wear and worn gilding on the edges
