Summary fragile. Made of lead
Assessor Emma Crawshaw
Notes It is in good overall condtion. The mark is made of lead which is a heavy and soft metal. The J in the policy number is a weak part and will bend if lift from that part. Carry with waight spread equaly. There is a nail hole above the policy. There seems to be another two nails hole. The top hole has broken and caused more of a chunk missing. The other hole has been filled in.
