Good. The barrel has a smooth brownish gray patina. The engraving is clear and most of the gold inlay remains. The stock is also very good with a repaired 2 1/2 inch crack on the upper right side of the forend, a chip ahead of the lock, and overall some minor dings and handling marks. All of the chiseling remains sharp. The action is fine.
