The mould itself has some scratches and residue on the medal. The handles are refinished but have medal specks lodged in them and heat damage towards their base. It comes with a factory manufactured green and brown two-piece, full-top box. The box is very old and delicate. The label on the top panel has an illustration of the mould and cites that the Marlin Firearms Co. is the successor to Ideal Mfg. Co. On the bottom right of the box there is a tear about two inches long. The top of the box has peeling of the layers of the cardboard and a couple tears. There is a sticker on the right side panel of the box which is hard to read because the original labelling was in pencil. On the mould it is labelled with the identifying code "257388". (file photo)
