Purchased about 40 years ago and used a few times, then left in a small container. There are some scratches. I collected these primarily for their design, so I don't think they have much value as precious metal items. There may be some overlooked defects, so please consider this only if you are okay with that. 12 fake jewels are inlaid. It's a clip-on type. There are no major scratches. Scratches/discoloration... None
