VERY GOOD condition - very little wear to the Gold wash - secure Pin closure - most if not all of the Rhinestones appear to be intact - prong on underside of Fox's belly that holds the Jelly Belly appears to have broken off at one time (there's some slight glue residue around the edge of the Lucite and bezel - probably used to hold the Jelly in place ) - could use a good cleaning (I'll leave that up to the winning bidder) - some typical minor alligatoring to the appearance of the Lucite (visible upon close examination - mentioned for accuracy) .. TERRIFIC design - a SWEET piece! .. measures about 3" x 1 1/2" .. marked on the back with the Pegasus logo tag that reads 'Sterling CORO-CRAFT' .. guaranteed OLD.
