Condition
There are numerous cracks radiating in from the mount which are visible in the catalogue photograph. Tiny losses on some of these appear to have been filled. There is another area of loss just below the Garter Star which has been filled and is visible in the photo. Examination of the reverse shows more fine cracks, far less numerous than those on the front.
