Not perfect but pretty darn nice. This CD 196 is embossed No 51 over H. G. CO. and on the reverse side PAT MAY 2 1893 I will call it dark blue aqua, but you judge the color for yourself. Base drips are perfect. There are three partially chipped shoulder drips and a somewhat hard to detect bruise. Also right at the bottom edge of the dome there is a shallow chip, about 1/4" in diameter. You can see it in the photo. You might get lucky and find one in better condition but why chance it. $110 plus actual shipping cost.
