Has some tarnish marks. I don’t try to clean them or polish them, so it may come up a lot better, hard to say but I don’t like to alter... them at all. That’s your decision if you like to polish it..... probably just through use it would shine!
The bottom has three straight date marks on the left and three on the right.
