Condition: Jar is Near Mint, NO chips, cracks or dings. Very clean. NOT a dug bottle, this was an attic find. As is typical with the lids, this lid has some chipping and bruises, mainly on the underside of the lid, as shown in the pictures above. Metal clamp has some surface oxidation which you could clean off if you so desired. (I have seen just a lid and clamp, in this condition, sell for $180, just so someone can complete their jar - the lids and clamps are very hard to find.)
