I used three pencils, so there are nine remaining. There are no noticeable scratches, but there are marks that look like they were rubbed, possibly from removing stickers (see photo 4). * These are from 9 years ago. * Shipped via Yu-packet Post. Thank you for your understanding. ● Mars Lumograph HB Pencils x 9 ● Historical Pencil Kit Contents: Lead x 1, Wooden Shafts x 2 (for one pencil), Glue x 1, String x 1, Sealing Wax-style Part x 1, Instruction Manual x 1
