The fragment is in good condition overall for age and is ready to place. The gilding is bright throughout; it has been worn or abraded in a few select areas but this does not detract from the overall presentation. There are scattered areas of what appear to be metal polish residue throughout the surface. The verso is unfinished and patinated as expected for the age of the fragment. Please request a complete condition report.
